Mixed mode fatigue crack growth and fatigue threshold analysis in polyurethane adhesives at elevated temperatures
Source abstract
Abstract
The paper investigates mixed-mode fatigue crack growth in ductile polyurethane adhesives, emphasizing mode decoupling to distinguish the impact of each loading mode component on crack propagation. It also explores the temperature sensitivity of fatigue crack growth rates for each loading mode. Individual scrutiny of the role of each loading mode in tests is accompanied by an analysis of fatigue fracture surfaces to clarify failure mechanisms. The findings indicate differential sensitivity to ambient temperature between the mode I and mode II components in a mixed mode fatigue test. Notably, the fatigue response of the mode I component exhibited higher sensitivity to temperature than the mode II component in mixed mode fatigue fracture of the tested polyurethanes. The polyurethane adhesives' composition, particularly the hard segment ratio, emerged as a pivotal factor influencing their sensitivity to fatigue loading at elevated temperatures. Temperature effects led to a significant reduction (63%) in the mode I component of mixed mode fatigue for one of the tested adhesives, while the other exhibited a noteworthy increase (154%). This trend which was attributed to the hard segment ratio of the adhesives was also persisted in the shear mode of the mixed mode fatigue results.
