The submitted paper compares mechanical properties of the hard surface layer of modified PBT filled by 35% of glass fibers. Hard surface layer was made by radiation cross-linking technology which allows polymer materials modification followed by the change of their end-use properties. The surface layer of polymer material is modified by β – radiation. When the polymer material is exposed to the β – radiation, it is possible to observe changes of the surface layer at applied load. The mechanical properties were measured by nanohardness test with using the DSI method (Depth Sensing Indentation).

Influence of mechanical properties of the hard surface layer of modified polyamide 6 is studied. Mechanical properties are acquired by nanohardness test with using the DSI method (Depth Sensing Indentation). Hard surface layers are created by radiation cross-linking technology. This technology allows polymer materials modification followed by the change of their end-use properties. The surface layer of polymer material is modified by ionizing β - radiation. When the polymer material is exposed to the β radiation, it is possible to observe changes of the surface layer at applied load. Radiation cross-linking usually improves strength, reduces creep, contributes to chemical resistance improvement, and in many cases improves tribological properties.

The presented article deals with the research of micro-mechanical properties in the surface layer of modified Polypropylene filled by 25% of glass fibers. These micro-mechanical properties were measured by the Depth Sensing Indentation - DSI method on samples which were non-irradiated and irradiated by different doses of the β - radiation. Radiation doses used were 0, 66 and 99 kGy for filled Polypropylene with the 6% cross-linking agent (triallyl isocyanurate). The change of micromechanical properties is greatly manifested mainly in the surface layer of the modified polypropylene where a significant growth of microhardness values can be observed.

Radiation crosslinking of polyamidu 6 (PA 6) is a well-recognized modification of improving basic material characteristics. Radiation, which penetrated through specimens and reacted with the cross-linking agent, gradually formed cross-linking (3D net), first in the surface layer and then in the total volume, which resulted in considerable changes in specimen behaviour. This research paper deals with the possible utilization of irradiated PA6. The material already contained a special cross-linking agent TAIC (5 volume %), which should enable subsequent cross-linking by ionizing β – radiation (15, 30 and 45 kGy). The effect of the irradiation on mechanical behavior of the tested PA 6 was investigated. Material properties created by β – radiation are measured by nanoindentation test using the DSI method (Depth Sensing Indentation). Hardness increased with increasing dose of irradiation at everything samples; however results of nanoindentation test shows increasing in nanomechanical properties of surface layer. The highest values of nanomechanical properties were reached radiation dose of 45 kGy, when the nanomechanical values increased by about 95%. These results indicate advantage cross-linking of the improved mechanical properties.

The presented article deals with the research of surface layer ́s micro-mechanical properties of modified LDPE by radiation cross-linking after temperature load. These micro-mechanical properties were measured by the DSI (Depth Sensing Indentation) method on samples which were non-irradiated and irradiated by different doses of the β – radiation and then were temperature loaded. The purpose of the article is to consider to what extent the irradiation process influences the resulting micro-mechanical properties measured by the DSI method. The LDPE tested showed significant changes of indentation hardness and modulus after temperature load.

The process of radiation crosslinking helps to improve some mechanical properties of polymer materials. Micro-mechanical changes in the surface layer of glass-fiber filled PA 66 modified by beta radiation were measured by the Depth Sensing Indentation - DSI method on samples which were non-irradiated and irradiated by different doses of the β - radiation. The specimens were prepared by injection technology and subjected to radiation doses of 0, 33, 66 nad 99 kGy. The change of micro-mechanical properties is greatly manifested mainly in the surface layer of the modified polypropylene where a significant growth of micro-hardness values can be observed. Indentation modulus increased from 1.8 to 3.0 GPa (increasing about 66%) and indentation hardness increased from 87 to 157 MPa (increasing about 80%). This research paper studies the influence of the dose of irradiation on the micro-mechanical properties of semi-crystalline polyamide 66 filled by 30% glass fiber at room temperature. The study is carried out due to the ever-growing employment of this type of polymer.

Cross-linking is a process in which polymer chains are associated through chemical bonds. This research paper deals with the possible utilization of irradiated polyamide. Influence of the intensity of irradiation on micro-indentation hardness was investigated. Material properties created by β – radiation are measured by micro-indentation test using the DSI method (Depth Sensing Indentation). Hardness increased with increasing dose of irradiation at everything samples; however results of micro-indentation test shows increasing in micro-mechanical properties of surface layer. The highest values of micro-mechanical properties were reached radiation dose of 99 kGy, when the micro-mechanical values increased by about 18%.

The presented article deals with the research of micro-mechanical properties in the surface layer of modified linear polyethylene (LLDPE). These micro-mechanical properties were measured by the Depth Sensing Indentation - DSI method on samples which were non-irradiated and irradiated by different doses of the β - radiation (0, 66, 132 and 198 kGy ). Individual radiation doses caused structural and micro-mechanical changes which have a significant effect on the final properties of the LLDPE tested. The highest values of micro-mechanical properties were reached at radiation dose of 132 kGy, when the micro-hardness values increased by about 29%. These results indicate advantage crosslinking of the improved mechanical properties.

This article deals with the influence of different doses of Beta radiation to the structure and mico-mechanical properties of Low-density polyethylene (LDPE). Hard surface layers of polymer materials, especially LDPE, can be formed by radiation cross-linking by β radiation with doses of 33, 66 and 99 kGy. Material properties created by β radiation are measured by micro-hardness test using the DSI method (Depth Sensing Indentation). Individual radiation doses caused structural and micro-mechanical changes which have a significant effect on the final properties of the LDPE tested. The highest values of micro-mechanical properties were reached at radiation dose of 66 and 99 kGy, when the micro-hardness values increased by about 21%. The changes were examined and confirmed by X-ray diffraction.

With the development of materials science and technology, performance and preparation of polymer materials becomes a hot topic. The heat resistance and corrosion resistance of Polymer material are strong and can be manufacture for composite materials. It is widely used in many areas. This paper adds metal shielding materials into polymer materials and uses layered coating technology. This paper treats metal mesh and PET film composite structure as in the electromagnetic shielding layer and prepares the alternating multilayer polymer electromagnetic shielding materials. This paper tests electronic shielding effect of the material. It mainly detects the shielding effect of pass rate, the decay rate, and the electromagnetic intensity of visible light. The result shows that the permeation rate of the materials for visible light is about 40%, and the attenuation effect is 85db. Multilayered metal shielding mesh shields 60% magnetic field strength and obtains good electromagnetic shielding effects. This paper tests the mechanical properties of the material through the polarizing microscope which proves that alternating multilayer polymer material has good continuity mechanical properties and high yield strength and heat resistance. It provides theoretical support for the development of the new type of electromagnetic shielding materials.
