Six maxillofacial materials were evaluated by determining their dynamic properties with use of a Goodyear Vibrotester. The dynamic modulus, internal friction, and dynamic resilience were measured for all materials over a temperature range of -15 to 37 C. The dynamic modulus ranged from 11.1 to 124.8 kg/cm2 and the dynamic resilience varied from 1.1 to 63.5%.

In this paper, a three-phase composite with electrically conductive carbon black (ECCB) and piezoelectric ceramic particles, PMN, embedded into butyl (PMN/ECCB/IIR) was prepared by simple blend and mold-press process. Dynamic mechanical properties with various ECCB loading were tested by dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA). DMA shows that the ECCB loading has remarkable effect on the dynamic mechanical properties of the three-phase composite. The temperature range of loss factor (tanδ) above 0.3 the composite was broadened by almost 100°C and the maximum of loss factor shifts to higher temperature in the testing temperature range respectively with increasing the ECCB loading. The piezoelectric damping theory was used to explain the experimental results. The three-phase composites with proper composition can be used as high damping polymer materials.

One-stage light gas gun is used to study the dynamic mechanical properties of reinforced concrete (SFRC) subjected to shock loading. The material of projectile is the same as of the target. The stress-time curves are recorded by three manganin pressure transducers embedded in the targets beforehand. The data of experiment are analyzed by self-designed program using the path line principle of Lagrangian analysis method. With the stress records, complete histories of particle velocity, density (and thus strain) and specific internal energy can be obtained at any point within the gaged region of the material. Moreover, the numerical constitutive relations of RC are obtained and the strain rate ranges from 104 to 105 per second. The result of experiment indicates that the stress-strain curves of SFRC present stagnant-return properties. And some other dynamic properties can be gained, such as rate dependent, waveform dissipation etc.

The objective of this study was to design a partly-degradable scaffold to repair cartilage defects. The scaffold, based on poly(vinyl alcohol), PVA, was intended to maintain long-term mechanical integrity and to facilitate cell proliferation via bioactive agent release from contained microparticles, made from either alginate, ALG or poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid), PLGA. The aim of this study was to characterize the morphological features and mechanical behaviour of composite scaffolds as a function of microparticle type and percent content. Our hypothesis was that the dynamic mechanical properties (Dynamic Modulus and Phase Angle) of the composite scaffold would not be affected by microparticle type, but that Dynamic Modulus would increase as a function of increased microparticle content. Scanning Electron Microscopy confirmed that the manufacturing process homogenously dispersed microspheres within the scaffolds. For pure PVA samples Dynamic Modulus ranged from 66±3 kPa at 0.01 Hz to 83±3 kPa at 50 Hz. As ALG microsphere content increased from 25% to 75%, Dynamic Modulus ranged from 92±5 kPa at 0.01 Hz to 153±19 kPa at 50 Hz. As the microsphere content increased from 25% to 75% PLGA, Dynamic Modulus ranged from 85±9 kPa at 0.01 Hz, to 157±16 kPa at 50 Hz. As expected, Dynamic Modulus increased with increasing test frequencies. For pure PVA specimens Phase Angle ranged from 4.3±0.8 degrees at 0.01 Hz to 12±1.2 degrees at 50 Hz. Phase Angle was not affected by microsphere content. In conclusion, the addition of microspheres affected the dynamic mechanical behavior, in particular Dynamic Modulus, of PVA scaffolds. However, the dynamic mechanical properties were not affected by the polymer from which the microspheres were manufactured. These findings suggest that microsphere type can be chosen to optimize the inclusion of bioactive factors, without detrimentally affecting the mechanical properties of the composite scaffold. It also suggests that % content of included microspheres can be used to modulate the mechanical properties of the scaffold at time zero.

BR/MgO composites were prepared with seven kinds of particle sizes of MgO filled respectively. Effects of particle sizes on dynamic mechanical properties, vulcanization characteristics and physical properties of BR/MgO composites were studied. The results showed that the tensile strength of composites filled nanoscale of MgO was nine times of pure BR, and the vulcanization time was significantly shorter than that of composites filled with micron grade filler. The RPA experiments proved that the composites filled with MgO of 20nm and 50nm have greatly higher G', and that the G'of the composites increase markedly while the value of tanδ decrease sharply with given temperature above 90 °C increasing. the higher value of tanδ at the frequency mode, and the obvious Payne effect compared with the composites filled micron grade of MgO

A modified estimation method for the dynamic mechanical properties of viscoelastic materials via asymmetrical sandwich specimens is presented. In contrast to the traditional vibrating cantilever beam test method (VCBTM), the proposed method allows asymmetrical base beams in sandwich specimens. Based on the complex stiffness method, complex parameters are introduced for general sandwich configurations. Calculation formulas for loss factor and shear modulus of the core material are presented. The effectiveness of this approach is validated numerically and experimentally by analysis of one symmetrical sandwich beam specimen and two specimens with asymmetrical thicknesses and materials. It is shown that dynamic mechanical parameters of the core material can be obtained regardless of sandwiches’ symmetry. The proposed method breaks the symmetrical criteria for sandwich specimens and may provide a wider application to measure viscoelastic materials’ dynamic properties.

In this work, palm fiber reinforced polylactic acid composites were fabricated by hot-compress. The palm fibers were treated by γ-aminopropyl trimethoxysilane (APS) and coated with polylactic acid (PLA) in varied percentage (5%, 10% and 15%). The treatment reaction was analyzed by FTIR and the effect of fiber treatment on the flexural and dynamic mechanical properties of oil palm empty fruit bunch/polylactic acid (OPEFB/PL) composites were examined. The flexural properties of composites were increased with increasing of fiber coating and improved by introduction of APS. It was also observed that the APS treated fibers had improved the dynamic mechanical properties of the composites respectively.

Abstract In the high-elastic temperature range the molecular weight has a considerable effect on the dynamic mechanical properties of linear (uncrosslinked) SKD cis-1, 4-butadiene rubber. In this temperature range an unequivocal correlation exists between the rebound resilience at a given temperature and the viscosity average molecular weight, and the determination of the resilience can therefore be recommended as a rapid method of finding the molecular weight of SKD. A similarity is found in the dynamic mechanical behavior of rubbers of different molecular weights in the high-elastic temperature range. In the low-temperature range an increase in the molecular weight of crystalline polymers of SKD is accompanied by an impairment of their elastic properties.
