The effect of water on the tensile yield of polystyrene

When PS is tested in tension but immersed in water the yield stress is unchanged and the crazing stress is increased, as compared with tests conducted in air. The crazing pattern is otherwise unchanged. If the PS is first equilibrated with water and then tested under water, both crazing stress and yield stress are reduced. A very large number of small crazes are generated which result in a 23% increase in the fracture strain.

Study on mixed‐mode fracture characterization in functionally graded materials

The fracture characterizations on mixed‐mode crack of functionally graded materials (FGMs) are investigated using digital speckle correlation method (DSCM). The stress intensity factors at mixed‐mode crack tip are obtained from digital speckle displacements fields. In combination with finite elements simulation results, the influences of gradient coefficients on fracture behavior of mixed‐mode cracks are analyzed. All the results show that the influence of gradient coefficients on fracture modes is not noticeable, and the stress intensity factor at the crack tip in graded materials are clearly influenced by the gradient coefficients, i.e., the stress intensity factors decrease with the increasing of gradient coefficients. © 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Cracking in poly(trimethylene terephthalate) spherulites

The crack behavior of poly(trimethylene terephthalate) spherulites was studied mainly by polarizing optical microscopy, along with scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and atomic force microscopy (AFM). In addition to the effects of temperature and constraining substrate, another important factor, film thickness, on the formation of crack was first put forward and investigated. The emergence of the first crack occurred at 120°C during cooling after crystallization at 190°C for the sample with a thickness of 31.0 μm. For the spherulites growing between glass sheets, it was interesting that the sample with a thickness of 26.0 μm exhibited the largest number of cracks measured per 200 μm of radius, whereas samples thicker than 100 μm or thinner than 1 μm did not induce the formation of crack. Also, spherulites growing between two polyimide and two Teflon sheets showed no crack. Glass sheets lubricated with silicon oil restrained the number of cracks but did not eliminate cracks. SEM revealed that the cracking was about 900 nm in width. In addition, the AFM results suggest that the cracks had a depth of at least 150 nm. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Effect of rubber particle cavitation on the mechanical properties and deformation behavior of high‐impact polystyrene

Rubber particle cavitation has been the focus of many investigations because it dramatically affects the mechanical properties of polymeric blends. In this work, the effect of rubber particle cavitation on the mechanical behavior of high‐impact polystyrene was studied. The extent of cavitation in rubber particles was varied via different thermal contraction/expansion cycles in the range of −100 to 23°C. Tensile, creep, and Charpy impact tests were conducted to evaluate the effects of the degree of cavitation on the general mechanical properties. The notch‐tip damage zone and deformation micromechanisms were also investigated by a transmitted optical microscopy technique to reveal the effects of cavitation on toughness. The results of this investigation illustrate a close relationship between the degree of rubber particle cavitation and the mechanical performance of high‐impact polystyrene. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Tensile behavior of polypropylene blended with bimodal distribution of styrene‐ethylene‐butadiene‐styrene particle size

The objective is to characterize the effects of the bimodal distribution of rubber particles and its blend ratio on the mechanical properties of the thermoplastic polypropylene blended with two different styrene‐ethylene‐butadiene‐styrene triblock copolymer at the intermediate and high strain rates. Tensile tests are conducted at the nominal strain rates from 3 × 10^?1 to 10² (1/s). Phase morphology is investigated to estimate the bimodal rubber particle size distribution. In addition, the in situ observation is conducted during uniaxially stretching within transmission electron microscopy step by step to investigate the deformation events depending on the elongation of samples. The elastic modulus increased gradually as the blend ratio of large rubber particle increased. An increase in the rupture strain and the strain energy up to failure was found for the bimodal rubber particle distributed blend system where the blend ratios of small rubber particle and large rubber particle were same. This is because the smaller particles dominant blend systems show the bandlike craze deformation while the localized plastic deformation is taken place in the larger particles dominated blend systems. The synergistic effect of these rubber particles gives rise to a strong increase in the ductility of these bimodal rubber particle distributed polypropylene systems. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
