## Abstract The addition of particulate mineral fillers to polymers confers certain mechanical property improvements automatically. Stiffness increases, creep diminishes and distortion at elevated temperatures is often reduced. However, the fracture energy of a polymer, as measured in impact, crack
The stress-strain behavior of glass bead-filled polystyrene, styrene-acrylonitrile, styrene-acrylonitrile-butadiene, and polyphenglene oxide composites is studied at various temperatures below their glass transition temperature. Earlier studies of beadfilled composites indicated that the addition of
