The polymer can take two different types of structures, amorphous (characterized by the glass transition) or crystalline structures (characterized by the ) , being possible the existence of both structures in the same thermoplastic material

Tg Glass transition is the reversible transition in amorphous region of a material from a hard and relatively brittle "glassy" state into a molten or rubber-like state.

Tm is the range of temperatures over melting occurs. Tm Melting is the physical process that results in the phase transition of a substance from a to a liquid.

Td is the range of temperatures over decomposition occurs. Td Thermal decomposition is a process of extensive chemical species change caused by heat.
