AB  - The thermal and mechanical properties of poly(ethylene-co-vinyl acetate) random 
      copolymers (PEVA) and its covalently crosslinked analogues (cPEVA) were 
      controlled by the overall crystallinity of the polymer networks. The cPEVAs with 
      different VA-content were synthesized by thermally-induced crosslinking of linear 
      PEVA with dicumyl peroxide (DCP). This work was mainly concerned with the effect 
      of vinyl acetate (VA) content on the crosslinking density, thermal and mechanical 
      properties of PEVAs and cPEVAs, respectively. The chemical composition was 
      analyzed by thermogravimetric analysis and (1)H-NMR. The thermal and mechanical 
      properties of PEVAs and cPEVAs have been studied through a series of conventional 
      analytical methods, including gel content determination, different scanning 
      calorimetry, thermogravimetric analysis, dynamic mechanical thermal analysis and 
      traditional mechanical measurements. The experimental results show that the 
      thermal and mechanical properties of PEVAs and cPEVAs increase with decreasing 
      the VA-content. A broad melting transition with a DeltaT(m) in the range from 78  degrees C 
      to 95  degrees C was observed for all polymer networks.
