Abstrakt: The article investigates the stress-induced fissures in regenerated cellulose and other polymer fibers. The transverse lines that form as a result of stress in fibers of regenerated cellulose are proved by studies with optical and electron microscopes to be a manifestation of fissures in the structure. The fissures appear before the breaking point is reached and they therefore constitute a structural feature that requires serious consideration in respect of the mechanical behavior of fibers. Nylon, Terylene and Courlene fibers show similar fissures when subjected to stress. These observations point to the existence of some common features of molecular structure in fibers from different polymers.
