摘要

By utilizing mortise-like clamping jaws and dogbone-shaped specimens

an improved X-ray apparatus that combines tensile testing and X-ray diffraction has been designed and constructed to investigate the “stress-deformation-segmental orientation” relationship in elastomers with high extensibilities. Due to the minimization of experimental errors from sample slippage or premature fracture

this setup allows for the simultaneous recording of high-quality mechanical responses and 2D diffraction patterns. Furthermore

the local extension ratio can be accurately determined based on thickness variation

and the Hermans' orientation function was demonstrated to be a reliable method with high accuracy to calculate the segmental orientation parameter ⟨

⟩ in elastomeric samples under high degree of stretching.

Abstract

An improved X-ray apparatus that combines tensile testing and X-ray diffraction has been designed and constructed to conduct time-resolved experiments during uniaxial stretching. By utilizing mortise-like clamping jaws and dogbone-shaped specimens

this setup allows for the simultaneous recording of high-quality mechanical responses and 2D diffraction patterns due to the minimization of experimental errors from sample slippage or premature fracture. Furthermore

the local extension ratio can be accurately determined based on thickness variation

and the Hermans' orientation function was demonstrated to be a reliable method with high accuracy to calculate the segmental orientation parameter
