heal.abstract	The effect of water at standard temperature and pressure on the rate of craze growth in polystyrene was studied with an elapsed-time photography method. Water was found to be a mild crazing agent for polystyrene, increasing the craze velocity by somewhat more than an order of magnitude at room temperature. The craze length was found to increase proportional to the	en
