Figure 10.
SAXS patterns recorded for the UHMWPE 5 sample compressed in a channel die to true strains indicated. Samples for deformation were machined from the compression-molded cylinder in the way to compress them along the cylinder axis (Ax-samples, patterns shown in the left row) or the cylinder radius (Rad-samples, patterns shown in the right row) as illustrated in the top of the graph. Samples deformed to a specified strain were examined with SAXS after unloading, in the relaxed state.
