Work of fracture of high impact polystyrene (HIPS) film under plane stress conditions
Source abstract
Abstract
Essential work of fracture methodology was used to determine plane-stress ductile fracture toughness of high impact polystyrene film of thickness 0.26 mm. Results obtained indicated that specific essential work of fracture, w e, is independent of loading rate, and for certain specimen sizes, independent of both gauge length and width of the specimen. On the other hand, w e was found to be affected by the temperature, molecular anisotropy and the geometry of the test specimens. Reasonable estimate of w e was obtained via crack opening displacement value.
