The effects of physical aging on dynamic mechanical and transient stress-relaxation properties of a high performance thermoplastic, polyetheretherketone (PEEK), are reported in this study. The aging effects are shown to be physical effects (and not chemical degradation) by establishing thermoreversibility of the aging process. The unique aspect of the present study is the simultaneous investigation of both dynamic and transient properties in the same mode of loading, namely, in shear. The influence of continuous dynamic deformation on the aging process is also reported. The results for the aging rate, obtained from dynamic and transient testing under shear load, agree with one another and verify the equivalence of dynamic and transient viscoelastic properties. However, these results differ significantly from the aging rate results reported in an earlier study for tensile loading. A possible explanation for the difference has been proposed in terms of the volume change that accompanies tensile creep deformation.
