Historically, the first ESR experiments with mechanically produced free radicals have been made in the Ioffe-Institute in Leningrad in 1959 [1] with ground or milled polymers, the samples being investigated after completion of the fracture process. To elucidate the effect of structural or environmental parameters on the kinetics of stress-induced free radical formation it is necessary to study — by ESR — highly stressed chains during the loading process. As outlined in Chapter 5 a notable energy elastic straining of a chain can only be achieved if the chain cannot relieve stresses internally by a change of conformation or externally by slippage against the field exerting the uniaxial forces. Vice versa the mechanical scission of a chain must be taken as an indication that at the time of chain rupture axial stresses ψ equal to the chain strength ψchad not only been reached but also maintained during the average lifetime period Tc of the chain segment.
