www.tainstruments.comBelow the Glass Transition, the material is in a brittle, glassy state Above the Glass Transition, the material becomes soft and flexible, and a modulus decrease. •Molecular: Below the Glass Transition, polymer chains are locked in place, without sufficient thermal energy to overcome the barrier for rotational or translational motion.
Measuring and Understanding Tg (Glass Transition …
imageserv10.team-logic.comThe glass transition is the temperature where the polymer goes from a hard, glass like state to a rubber like state. The best way to envision this type of transition is to put a rubber band (rubber like state, very flexible) into a container of liquid nitrogen. When

www.perkinelmer.comA Modulus values change with temperature and transitions in materials can be seen as changes in the E’ or tan delta curves. This includes not only the glass transition and the melt, but also other transitions that occur in the glassy or rubbery plateau, shown in Figure 3. These transitions indicate subtler changes in the material.

resources.perkinelmer.comThe glass transition is really a range of behavior where scientist have agreed to accept a single temperature as the indicator per certain standards. Different industries have used different points from the same data set that can vary as much as 15 ˚C. DSC, TMA, and DMA measure different processes and therefore, the numbers vary a bit.
