The critical resolved shear stress (C.R.S.S.) for (010) [001] slip in oriented high- density polyethylene (HDPE) has been measured as a function of temperature between 0° and 100°C. The variation of the C.R.S.S. with temperature has been interpreted in terms of yield by means of the thermal activation of dislocations at the edges of the crystal platelets under the action of an applied shear stress.
