Abstract
The deformation behavior of two rubber modified polymers, a high impact polystyrene (HIPS) and an acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene (ABS), has been studied using uniaxial tensile tests. It is found that the yield and subsequent deformation behavior of ABS is almost totally dominated by crazing for the complete range of temperatures and strain rates studied. For HIPS both crazing and shear yielding can occur depending on the combination of temperature and strain rate used in the test.
