Tensile yield, flow, and fracture mechanisms in styrene A (SA), a styrene‐acrylonitrile copolymer rubber‐modified styrene A (RMSA) have been studied and characterized into two basic types: tensile crazing and shear banding. Each can be represented by a master curve and equation over ranges of temperature and deformation rates. Each exhibits distinctive activation energy and volume values. Tensile crazing predominates in unoriented SA below 70°C, and in RMSA. Shear yielding predominates in oriented SA.
