Science article also has some test apparatus images, heat processed finished plastic images, and images of the plastic under attack by several different solvents (hexane, CH2Cl2, THF, Acetone, MeOH, DMF).
Also has stress-strain curves of the material, and behavior when used in glued together boxes for packaging.
