  "term": "Thermomechanical properties",
  "field": "Chemistry",
  "definition": "The mechanical properties of a polymer as they vary with temperature, time, and frequency of applied stress or strain. These properties describe the material's response to a mechanical load under specific thermal conditions, including its stiffness, strength, and viscoelastic behavior. Key measurements include the storage modulus, loss modulus, and glass transition temperature, which are determined using techniques like dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA).",
