Abstract :
The TSDC (thermally stimulated discharge current) spectrum of poly(trans 1-octenylene) is analyzed by means of the thermal sampling technique over the 150-320 K temperature range. Three relaxation zones are defined in the spectrum. In addition, a shoulder, localized in a narrow temperature interval (220-250 K) of the TSDC spectrum, is observed. It is found to be correlated with a change in the slope of the microhardness (Vickers) versus T plot
