The recovery after bending has been extensively studied for metal sheets. The data presented in this work show that in the case of polymeric materials viscoelastic effects play a very important role. In particular the influence of deformation rate, the time the sample is held under load and the recovery time is analysed. A master curve is obtained by proper modification of a recent analysis developed for metal sheets.
