Abstract :
The effect of strain rate and short glass fiber
loading on tensile and flexural properties of Polyamide
66 and Polytetrafluroethylene (PA66/PTFE) blend
based composites was studied. Thermoplastic blend of
80 wt. % PA66 / 20 wt. % PTFE has been used as the
matrix. The composite was prepared by reinforcing the
matrix with different weight fraction percentage of
short glass fibers (5, 10, 20 and 30 wt. %). These
material systems were developed using melt mix method
using twin screw extrusion technique followed by
injection molding. The effect of different strain rates (5,
25 and 50 mm/min) on tensile properties was evaluated
as per ASTM D630 respectively. The experimental
results revealed that tensile properties of SGF
reinforced PA66/PTFE composites vary as a linear
function of strain rates. Increase in tensile strength was
noticed because of increase in strain rate. This can be
attributed to increase in strain energy of a material. The
fractured surfaces were studied using Scanning
Electron Microscope (SEM) images.
