“…In this fashion, this work uncovered some unity in our understanding of GF materials from perspectives considered formerly as distinct. This has also been emphasized in our recent works, 29,126 and the present work continues to amplify on this working hypothesis. Following this logical thread further, we examine the correlation between G p and L/L A .…”

“…This section focuses on the thermodynamic properties that have been shown by both the GET , and simulation , to be relevant to the understanding of polymer glass formation. Because we did not find anything particularly unexpected in the T dependence of the thermodynamic properties of ring polymer melts, which our previous studies have discussed in detail for linear polymers, ,, we focus on their variations with m c and M at fixed T to illustrate the importance of topological rigidification in determining these properties.…”

“…The existence of multiple characteristic temperatures is a general feature of glass-forming materials. This universal behavior is emphasized in the GET of glass formation. This theory enables direct computations of multiple characteristic temperatures in polymer melts having variable monomer structure, chain stiffness, cohesive energy, etc., including the onset at T A , the middle or cross-over at T c , and the termination at T 0 of glass formation, as well as the kinetically defined glass transition temperature T g , occurring between T c and T 0 based on conventional experimental criteria for defining T g described below. (We note that the various definitions of T g exist depending on particular criteria for the value of the relaxation time chosen to define this temperature and the cooling rate, so estimates of T g can vary.)…”
