The influence of microstructure and temperature on the initiation of yield stress and strain of high-density polyethylene are examined using a set of linear and branched polyethylenes. The polymers were crystallized in different ways in order to get samples covering the range of crystallinity 0.5 ≤ Xc ≤ 0.8 and crystallite thickness 8 nm ≤ Lc ≤ 29 nm. In contrast to the conventional macroscopic yield strain and stress, the initiation strain εyi and stress σyi were estimated from the macroscopic stress-strain curves at the onset of local plasticity as judged from in situ WAXS experiments upon tensile deformation. Phenomenological linear relation was observed between σyi crystallinity at each draw temperature Td. The dislocation model was applied to check the correlation between σyi and crystal thickness. In order to also account for the chain topology, namely the concentration of stress transmitters ST, a modified Eyring's approach was proposed. This modelling provides a good prediction the σyi dependence on Lc and ST in the context of thermally activated rate processes. Finally, anelastic stress gauge, σccr, was determined from local strain measurements in crystals at the same local strain as for σyi. This critical elastic stress at initiation of crystal plasticity displayed a good correlation with σyi at high crystallinity. However, σccr was found to deviate from σyi with increasing Td particularly at low Xc values. This finding was attributed to the activation of the crystalline mechanical relation that involves a significant drop of σyi with increasing Td in the crystalline lamellae under shear yielding whereas it does not affect the theoretical σccr elastic stress.
