Typical behavior of the storage modulus for thermoplastic polymers that is dependent on the temperature. Tg and Tm represent the glass transition temperature and melting temperature, respectively. NIL or hot embossing is usually performed above the Tg either in the viscoelastic or viscous state while demolding is done in the hard glassy state below the Tg.
