Elastic Hysteresis

Abstract 1. The increase in tensile strength and the elastic hysteresis are undoubtedly conditioned by the surface processes at the boundary of rubber and filler. 2. On freezing, the optimum increase in tensile strength is shifted toward a smaller volume loading. 3. Because of the considerable increase of viscosity of the medium upon freezing, the forces of friction increase to such a degree that they mask the usual relations existing between A, R, and H for all ingredients.

Tear Propagation

Abstract Soft CR vulcanizates resemble NR vulcanizates in many ways. Their tensile strength is high at low temperatures and drops sharply at a characteristic temperature to a value of about 1–1.5 MPa. Their tear resistance decreases smoothly as the temperature is raised and does not reach a lower limit, even at temperatures as high as 150°C. However, they show continuous tear propagation at room temperature under relatively large tear forces, whereas NR materials do not. This difference must reflect different strengths of the crystallites formed at the tear tip, those in CR being significantly weaker. Also, a specific environmental effect is noted: When immersed in solutions of FeCl3, the CR materials show more rapid tearing, and they tear at significantly lower forces than in water or in NaCl solutions (or in air). Although they swell continuously in water and in salt solutions, the rate of swelling seems far too low to account for the weakening observed. Moreover, the swelling is greater in water, whereas the weakening is specific to FeCl3 solution. It is attributed to a chemical reaction between FeCl3 and the CR molecule.

In this paper it has been sought to highlight the mechanical behavior of composite structures at low temperatures compared to mechanical behavior at room temperature. For researches an experimental program has been conceived and built using factorial method. In this method, as dependent variable was taken the tensile strength (σr), while as independent variables were taken: the fiber orientation angles (θ), the degree of reinforcement (Mf) of the composite structure and the temperature (t) at which the tests were carried out (+25°C,-25°C and-50°C respectively). It has been used a complex experimental installation, specific to tests at low temperatures.

Fatigue Characteristics

The fatigue of copper, silver, gold, aluminium, magnesium, zinc and iron has been investigated at 4⋅2, 20, 90 and 293° K. Except for zinc and iron, which exhibit brittle fracture at low temperatures, the fatigue characteristics improve very considerably as the temperature is reduced. The ultimate tensile strength of all the metals was also taken at each temperature and there was shown to be a marked correlation between the increase in the tensile strength at low temperatures and the increase in the fatigue strength. The results are discussed with reference to current ideas on the mechanism of fatigue.

Abstract Mechanical and technological properties of castings made from 3xx.x alloys depend mainly on properly performed process of melting and casting, structure of a casting and mould, as well as possible heat treatment. Precipitation processes occurring during the heat treatment of the silumins containing additives of Cu and/or Mg have effect on improvement of mechanical properties of the material, while choice of parameters of solutioning and ageing treatments belongs to objectives of research work performed by a number of authors. Shortened heat treatment, which is presented in the paper assures suitable mechanical properties (Rm), and simultaneously doesn’t cause any increase of production costs of a given component due to long lasting operations of the solutioning and ageing. Results of the research concern effects of the solutioning and ageing parameters on the Rm tensile strength presented in form of the second degree polynomial and illustrated in spatial diagrams. Performed shortened heat treatment results in considerable increase of the Rm tensile strength of the 320.0 alloy as early as after 1 hour of the solutioning and 2 hours of the ageing performed in suitable.

Nylon 6,6

A series of polymer alloys based on different compositions of Nylon 6,6 oligomers (NYL66Oґs) and epoxy resin have been prepared. The oligomer was extracted from the waste residues of the industrial production of nylon 6,6 and was dissolved in the epoxy resin. The mixture was crosslinked at 333 K using dodecenylsuccinic anhydre (DDSA) as a curing agent. The tensile strength and flexural modulus were found to increase with the addition of NYLO66O up to a maximum value of 2 wt % oligomer content. Both, the tensile and impact strength show a maximum increase due to the addition of 35 wt % NYLO66O. The compressive strength testing revealed a considerable increase, up to 87 %, over that of the neat epoxy with the addition of 1 wt % NYLO66O. An interesting relationship between the mechanical properties and the developed morphology of the blends has been found.

Abstract Although the practice of bonding rubber to metal has been in use for many years, no theories appear to have been advanced which explain adequately the mechanism of bonding. It has been stated that the brass bond between rubber and metal functions through chemical linkages, but this can only be regarded as tentative and has yet to be proved. No attempt has been made to find out how ebonite functions as a bonding medium or the more recently discovered derivatives of rubber, such as sulfonated rubber, chlorinated rubber, and rubber hydrohalides. Until it is properly elucidated just how bonding agents do act, further logical development of improved bonding media cannot be pursued. It is intended in this paper to show how the rubber-metal bond behaves at subnormal temperatures and how a low temperature technique may be used for studying the mechanism of bonding. The effect of low temperatures on the tensile strength and associated properties of vulcanized rubber, such as hardness, permanent set, flexibility, resilience and flexing, has been dealt with fairly comprehensively in the literature. Progressive reduction in temperature leads to only a moderate increase, for example, in tensile strength, until the point is reached at which the rubber stiffens and freezes, when a marked increase occurs. Examination of a brass-bonded unit at low temperatures revealed that the graph obtained for bond strength was very similar in slope and character to that for tensile strength. The similarity is illustrated by the data in Table 1 and in Figure 1.
