EFFECT OF MECHANICAL PRE-CONDITIONING ON FRACTURE RESISTANCE OF POLYPROPYLENE
The effect of externally applied mechanical pre-conditioning
i.e
. pre-impact treatment
on the fracture resistance was investigated for polypropylene (PP). Impact strength was obtained
via
notched and/or unnotched samples. It has been shown that the pre-impact treatment is favorable to the improvement of the fracture resistance. The impact strength increases linearly with the applied pre-impact energy. Both optical and SEM results show that there are at least two possible mechanisms for the improvement of the fracture resistance. One is the crack blunting effect which is introduced to notched sample by pre-impact treatment
reducing the sensitivity of PP to the applied notch. The other is the formation of large amount of microvoids induced by pre-impact treatment
which changes the stress distribution and induces intensive plastic deformation of PP at the second impact measurement
leading to the improvement of the fracture resistance.
