The Impact

The present work deals with the microwave-assisted compression moulding of high-density polyethylene (HDPE)-based composites. In the present work, 20 wt% of reinforcement in the form of kenaf and multi-walled carbon nanotube (MWCNT) was used to fabricate HDPE/kenaf and HDPE/MWCNT polymer composites. The mechanical characterizations of the microwave-processed composites were carried out in terms of uniaxial tensile test with different strain rate, multistep stress relaxation, flexural and impact test. The uniaxial tensile test revealed that the tensile modulus of microwave-processed four-layered HDPE/kenaf polymer composite was 35.2% higher than that of HDPE/MWCNT polymer composite. The HDPE/MWCNT polymer composite showed a minimum of 1.25 GPa and a maximum of 4.7 GPa of elastic modulus when tested at different strain rate. The impact energy absorbed by the HDPE/kenaf polymer composite (1.055 J) was 81.12% higher than the HDPE/MWCNT polymer composite (0.582 J).

Material Information

The standard uniaxial tensile test is the widely accepted method to obtain relevant properties of mechanical characterization of sheet metal materials. However the range of strain obtained from tensile test is limited. The bulge test is an alternative to obtain ranges of deformation, higher than tensile test, thus permitting a better characterization for material behaviour. This paper presents a sensitivity analysis for some influencing variables used in bulge measurements, thus giving some guidelines for the evaluation of the stress-strain curve from experimental results using a developed experimental mechanical system. Additionally, using bulge test up to fracture shall give material information regarding damage, which in turn may be used to evaluate and calibrate damage models. A methodology is presented to be used for evaluation and calibration of Ito-Goya damage model of damage prediction.
