Abstract
The mechanical and electrical properties of polymers are discussed in terms of the properties of individual polymer molecules in such a way as to bring out principles and generalizations which may be of use to persons interested in applying polymeric materials in electronic devices. The emphasis is on polymers consisting of essentially linear chains. A few linear polymers derived from ethylene, and chemically substituted ethylene are chosen for purposes of illustrating basic concepts.
