From the group of polyesters poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET), and poly(butylene terephthalate) (PBT) were selected. Two PBT\u2010based commercial poly(ether ester)s were also studied differing in the molecular weight of their soft segments (poly(tetramethylene glycol), PTMG) being 1000 and 2000, respectively. A blend of PBT and EM550 (40\/60 by wt.) was also characterized. All materials underwent the same sample preparation process resulting in highly oriented \u201cbristles\u201d of 1 mm diameter. It was found that <jats:italic>\u03b5<\/jats:italic><jats:sub>b<\/jats:sub>, the elongation at break, strongly depends on the flexibility of the glycol residues of the materials studied \u2013 ranging from <jats:italic>\u03b5<\/jats:italic><jats:sub>b<\/jats:sub>\u2009=\u20098% for PET that contains ethylene glycol residues, through <jats:italic>\u03b5<\/jats:italic><jats:sub>b<\/jats:sub>\u2009=\u200918% for PBT including the more flexible tetramethylene glycol (TMG) up to <jats:italic>\u03b5<\/jats:italic><jats:sub>b<\/jats:sub>\u2009=\u2009510% for the PEE containing the longest PTMG moieties. During straining the relationship between the external elongation <jats:italic>\u03b5<\/jats:italic> and the changes in the long spacing <jats:italic>L<\/jats:italic> was determined. After relaxation from each deformation step the relationship between the tensile set <jats:italic>\u03b5<\/jats:italic><jats:sub>r<\/jats:sub> and the long period <jats:italic>L<\/jats:italic> was also followed and discussed. Such analysis led to a model describing the nanostructure evolution during the deformation\u2010relaxation cycle that finally was verified and refined utilizing the multidimensional chord distribution function computed from the anisotropic SAXS patterns.<\/jats:p><jats:p><jats:boxed-text content-type=\"graphic\" position=\"anchor\"><jats:caption><jats:p>2D SAXS patterns (pseudo color) of bristles of PET (PBT), respectively, cold drawn, <jats:italic>\u03bb<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u20093.5 (<jats:italic>\u03bb<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u20092.3) and annealed with fixed ends for 6 h at 240\u2009\u00b0C (180\u2009\u00b0C), recorded at room temperature at a forced tensile deformation <jats:italic>\u03b5<\/jats:italic> or tensile set (residual elongation) <jats:italic>\u03b5<\/jats:italic><jats:sub>r<\/jats:sub> in percent.<\/jats:p><\/jats:caption><jats:graphic xmlns:xlink=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1999\/xlink\" mimetype=\"image\/jpeg\" position=\"anchor\" specific-use=\"enlarged-web-image\" xlink:href=\"graphic\/mgra001.jpg\"><jats:alt-text>magnified image<\/jats:alt-text><jats:caption><jats:p>2D SAXS patterns (pseudo color) of bristles of PET (PBT), respectively, cold drawn, <jats:italic>\u03bb<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u20093.5 (<jats:italic>\u03bb<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u20092.3) and annealed with fixed ends for 6 h at 240\u2009\u00b0C (180\u2009\u00b0C), recorded at room temperature at a forced tensile deformation <jats:italic>\u03b5<\/jats:italic> or tensile set (residual elongation) <jats:italic>\u03b5<\/jats:italic><jats:sub>r<\/jats:sub> in percent.<\/jats:p><\/jats:caption><\/jats:graphic><\/jats:boxed-text>\n<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1002\/macp.200390066","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2003,6,2]],"date-time":"2003-06-02T10:06:12Z","timestamp":1054548372000},"page":"1000-1013","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":39,"title":["Deformation Behavior of PET, PBT and PBT\u2010Based Thermoplastic Elastomers as Revealed by SAXS from Synchrotron"],"prefix":"10.1002","volume":"204","author":[{"given":"Norbert","family":"Stribeck","sequence":"first","affiliation":[]},{"given":"Stoyko","family":"Fakirov","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[]},{"given":"Anton A.","family":"Apostolov","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[]},{"given":"Zlatan","family":"Denchev","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[]},{"given":"Rainer","family":"Gehrke","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2003,4,29]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_7_1_2","volume-title":"Encyclopedia of Polymer Science and Engineering","author":"Schr\u00f6der H.","year":"1988"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_2_2","volume-title":"Thermoplastic Elastomers","author":"Legge R.
