The material can fail by tearing instability when the elastic contraction is greater than the plastic extension due to crack growth. Tearing instability (TIS) theory developed by Paris and co-workers is applied to describe the effects of rubber content and temperature on the stability of ductile cra

β¦ Synopsis
The effects of rubber content and temperature on dynamic fracture toughness of ABS materials have been investigated based on the J-integral and crack opening displacement (COD, β¦) concepts by an instrumented Charpy impact test. A multiple specimens R-curve method and stop block technique are used. It is shown that the materials exhibit a different toughness behavior, depending on rubber content and temperature. The resistance against stable crack initiation (J 0.2 or β¦ 0.2 ) increases with increasing rubber content. However, J 0.2 first increased with increasing temperature until reaching the maximum value; after that, it decreases with further increasing the temperature.

The fracture behavior of ABS materials with a particle diameter of 110 nm and of 330 nm was studied using instrumented Charpy impact tests. The effects of rubber content and temperature on fracture behavior, deformation mode, stable crack extension, plastic zone size, J-integral value, and crack ope
## Abstract Few engineering materials are limited by their strength; rather they are limited by their resistance to fracture or fracture toughness. It is not by accident that most critical structures, such as bridges, ships, nuclear pressure vessels and so forth, are manufactured from materials tha
A new mixing process was explored to increase further the fracture toughness and to investigate the toughening mechanisms of epoxy/nylon blend. In this process, without mechanical mixing, the mixtures of epoxy and premade nylon 6 powder were heated without the curing agent to specific temperatures,
