The relaxation spectra of polyacrylonitrile-poly(vinyl chloride) copolymer filament fibers were obtained by applying the experimental stress relaxation curves to the theoretical equation of relaxation spectrum. The theoretical equation of relaxation spectrum was derived from the Ree-Eyring and Maxwell model. The experimental of stress relaxation was carried out using a tensile tester with a solvent chamber. The determination of relaxation spectra was performed by computer calculation. From the relaxation spectra, the fine structures, viscoelastic properties and hole volumes of solid polymers were studied. It was observed that the relaxation spectra of these samples were directly related to the distribution of molecular weights and self diffusions of flow segments.

The stress relaxation of poly(methyl acrylate)-poly(acrylonitrile) copolymer samples was carried out in air, distilled water, pH 3, 7 and 11 solutions at various temperatures using a tensile tester equipped with a solvent chamber. The relaxation spectra of poly(methyl acrylate)-poly(acrylonitrile) copolymers were obtained by applying the experimental stress relaxation curves to the equation of relaxation spectrum derived from the Ree-Eyring and Maxwell model. The determination of relaxation spectra was performed from computer calculation using a Laplace transform method. It was observed that the relaxation spectra of these samples are directly related to the distribution of molecular weights and self-diffusions of flow segments.

The theoretical equation for the relaxation spectrum of nonlinear viscoelastic polymeric material was derived from the Ree-Eyring and Maxwell non-Newtonian model. This model consists of infinite number of hyperbolic sine law Maxwell elements coupled in parallel plus a spring without a dashpot. Infinite number of nonlinear viscoelastic Maxwell elements can be used by specifying distribution of relaxation times, hole volumes, molecular weights, crystallite size and conformational size, etc. The experimentals of stress relaxation were carried out using the tensile tester with the solvent chamber. The relaxation spectra of nylon 6 filament fibers in various electrolytic solutions were obtained by applying the experimental stress relaxation curves to the theoretical equation of relaxation spectrum. The determination of relaxation spectra was performed from computer calculation.

The self diffusion distributions of viscoelastic molten polyurethanes were determined from the relationship between the relaxation spectra and the distribution of self diffusion. The relaxation spectra of ester, PCL and PCL dyed type molten polyurethanes were obtained by applying the experimental stress relaxation curves to the theoretical equation of the Ree-Eyring and Maxwell non-Newtonian model(REM model) from computer calculation. The experiments were carried out at various temperatures using the physica rheometer with the temperature controller. The self diffusion and hole distance of amorphous region of polyurethane samples were investigated by experiments of stress relaxation. The diffusion coefficients and hole volumes were calculated from rheological parameters and crystallite size in order to study the diffusion of flow segments in amorphous region. It was observed that the relaxation spectra and self diffusions of these polymer samples are directly related to the distribution of molecular weights, viscosities, hole volumes and activation energies of flow segments.

The self diffusion, hole volume, and flow thermodynamic parameters of polyamide fibers were calculated from rheological parameters and crystallite size in order to study of flow segments in amorphous region. The stress relaxation of polyamide filament fibers were carried out in air and various solvents at various temperatures using the tensile tester with the solvent chamber. The rheological parameters were obtained by applying the experimental stress relaxation curves to the theoretical equation of the Ree-Eyring and Maxwell non-Newtonian model. It was observed that the rheological parameters of these polyamide filament fibers are directly related to the relaxation spectra, self diffusion, viscosities, and activation energies of flow segments.
