The authors performed a detailed quantitative investigation of shock-induced polarization of PVC in a wide range of dynamic pressures, the results of which are reported here. Chosen for the investigation was VNE polyvinyl chloride plastic with a density of 1.40 g/cm/sup 3/ and with the following composition, in mass%: PVC, 92.6; lead monoxide, 2.6; calcium stearate, 1.1; stearine, 0.9; and spindle oil, 2.8. The overall result of this investigation is the conclusion that there is as yet no basis for rejection of the orientational model of shock-induced polarization in polymers.
