Mechanical behavior crazing

A good dispersion of rubber particles appears to favor the nucleation and growth of a large number of thick crazes uniformly distributed in the polystyrene matrix. This is believed to be an efficient source of energy absorption for the material under mechanical loading. The concepts of stress field overlap and critical volume of stress concentration zone for craze initiation were introduced to explain the observed mechanical behavior of HIPS. [Pg.44]

It is well known that the mechanical behavior of glassy amorphous polymers is strongly influenced by hydrostatic pressure. A pronounced change is that polymers, which fracture in a brittle manner, can be made to yield by the application of hydrostatic pressure Additional experimental evidence for the role of a dilatational stress component in crazing in semicrystalline thermoplastics is obtainai by the tests in which hydrostatic pressure suppresses craze nucleation as a result, above a certain critical hydrostatic pressure the material can be plastically deformed. [Pg.380]

Similar stress-strain curves have been obtained for polystyrene crazes. However, these results do not necessarily reveal the real mechanical behavior of the craze. The removal of the solvent from samples will cause shrinkage and have a significant plasticizing effect on the craze fibrils. This has to... [Pg.612]

When building a model to predict the mechanical behavior of heterogeneous materials based on polypropylene, the basic principle of fracture mechanics should be considered that fracture is induced in a material when an energy threshold on the weakest zones is reached. It is also well accepted that such energy threshold consists of at least two components necessary energy to initiate a craze and the necessary energy to propagate it. [Pg.386]

Optical KLenents. Problems which are common to many solar-related optical elements Include dirt retention, cleaning, surface abrasion, and photodegradation. A common feature of some of these problems Is that the deleterious effects occur at an Interface. Ultraviolet radiation, atmospheric components, mechanical stress, etc., can have a profound effect on performance by changing surface characteristics. The lifetimes of UV stabilizers can be limited by exudation permeability can cause harmful reactions at Interfaces and mechanical properties can be Influenced by surface crazing. In other applications mechanical behavior of the bulk polymer Is critical and virtually all applications require that the polymer system withstand multiple environmental stresses simultaneously. [Pg.12]

The mechanical properties, especially the internal stresses set up by interaction of substrate and deposit, have a close bearing on the behavior of metallic interconnects (electrical conductors) in integrated circuits. Such interconnects suffer from more diseases than does a drink-sodden and tobacco-crazed invalid, and stress-states play roughly the role of nicotine poisoning. A very good review specifically of stresses in films is by Nix (1989). [Pg.411]

In order to supplement micro-mechanical investigations and advance knowledge of the fracture process, micro-mechanical measurements in the deformation zone are required to determine local stresses and strains. In TPs, craze zones can develop that are important microscopic features around a crack tip governing strength behavior. For certain plastics fracture is preceded by the formation of a craze zone that is a wedge shaped region spanned by oriented micro-fibrils. Methods of craze zone measurements include optical emission spectroscopy, diffraction... [Pg.299]

The most desirable property of polycarbonates is their high ductility on impact, relative to other engineering polymers in the unmodified state. There is no consensus on the mechanism of ductility researchers continue to explore this behavior through molecular dynamics studies of chain segment motion during the formation of crazes and propagation of the failure. [Pg.322]
