✦ Synopsis

Stress relaxation behavior of short Kevlar fiber-reinforced thermoplastic polyurethane ( T P U ) is studied with respect to strain level, strain rate, fiber loading, and fiber orientation and temperature. The existence of a two-step relaxation mechanism for unfilled stock and a three-stage relaxation mechanism for the fiber-filled stock is reported.

The yield stress of polyacetal (POM) decreases monotonically with the incorporation of thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) elastomer in POM/TPU blends as would be anticipated. However, the impact strength of the resultant POM/TPU blends increases initially up to 30% TPU and thereafter decreases with th

## Abstract The stress relaxation behavior of natural rubber (NR) and its composites reinforced with short coir fibers under tension was analyzed. The rate of stress relaxation was a measure of the increase in the entropy of the compounds: the higher the rate was, the greater the entropy was. At lo
