Popis: The structural relaxation of PMMA copolymers with different chain flexibility has been studied by DSC with two classical procedures, namely: the rate of cooling and the isothermal approaches. The apparent activation energy of enthalpy relaxation was evaluated from the dependence of the glass transition temperature on the cooling rate while a comparison of the apparent relaxation rates was appraised from the enthalpy loss by annealing the different samples at the same level of undercooling (Ta = Tg−18 °C).
