Structure parameter x, defining the relative contributions of temperature and structure to the relaxation times, which is applied in Tool–Narayanaswamy–Moynihan (TNM) equation, was evaluated from volume heating isobars for polystyrene (PS) applying the peak shift method. The peak shifted with changing structural state of PS prior heating, which was reached by different period of aging time at 89 °C < Tg up to 2544 h. In this novelized procedure for volume data, originally tested only for enthalpic measurements, high sensitivity of peak temperature (position of inflection point of the heating isobar) was shown, together with high linearity of data. This allows to directly and sensitively calculate the shift and consequently structure parameter x. The value found in the research, x = 0.40 ± 0.02, is in good agreement with published results obtained by the peak-shift method from enthalpy data of PS.
