Despite its importance, no previous work has been reported on the high-strain rate behavior of polypropylene/zinc oxide nanocomposites. Based on this, static and dynamic compression properties of polypropylene/zinc oxide nanocomposites, with particle contents of 1%, 3%, and 5% by weight, were successfully studied at different strain rates (i.e., 0.01 s-1, 0.1 s-1, 650 s-1, 900 s-1, and 1100 s-1) using a universal testing machine and a split Hopkinson pressure bar apparatus. For standardization, approximately 24 nm of zinc oxide nanoparticles were embedded into polypropylene matrix for each of the tested polypropylene/zinc oxide nanocomposites. Results show that the yield strength, the ultimate strength, and the stiffness properties, of polypropylene/zinc oxide nanocomposites, were greatly affected by both particle loading and applied strain rate. Furthermore, the rate sensitivity and the absorbed energy of all tested specimens showed a positive increment with increasing strain rate, whereas the thermal activation volume showed a contrary trend. In addition, the fractographic analysis and particle dispersion of all composite specimens were successfully obtained using a field emisission scanning electron microscopy. 2014-06-10T08:18:28Z 2014-06-10T08:18:28Z 2014-04 Article Polymer Engineering and Science, vol. 54(4), 2014, pages 949-960 0032-3888 (Print) 1548-2634 (Online) http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/pen.23633/abstract http://dspace.unimap.edu.my:80/dspace/handle/123456789/35329 10.1002/pen.23633 en Wiley Periodicals, Inc. |
