basic information
In polymer products such as molded items, films, and fibers, "birefringence" occurs due to the stresses applied during molding or use, as well as the internal structure, which significantly affects the optical properties of the products. This course will clearly explain, with specific examples, the following questions: What is birefringence in polymers? What principles lead to its occurrence? How can it be controlled? How can it be measured?
