چکیده

Recent advances in non-contact strain measurement techniques and large-strain constitutive modeling of the Linear Low-Density Polyethylene film used in NASA Superpressure balloons, StratoFilm 420, are combined to provide a novel measurement technique for the tear propagation critical value of the J-integral. Previously these measurements have required complex test configurations and procedures. It is found that the critical value of the Jintegral increases by approximately 50% when the strain rate is decreased from 1.33 × 10−4 s−1 to 1.33 × 10−5 s−1. It is shown that there is good correlation between measurements made on uniaxially loaded dogbone samples and circular diaphragms loaded by pressure, both with a 2 mm wide slit in the middle. This result indicates that more extensive studies of strain-rate dependence may be made with the simpler, uniaxial test configuration.

Heat-seal Strength Analysis of Laminated Films with Lldpe and Ldpe Sealant Materials in Bar Sealing Application

The heat-seal strength and failure modes of laminated films with Linear Low Density Polyethylene (LLDPE) and Low Density Polyethylene (LDPE) as the sealant materials were investigated. Heat-seal strength increases with platen temperature for all samples. The maximum achievable heat-seal strength for laminated film using LDPE and LLDPE as sealant material is 0.598 N/mm and 4.02 N/mm, respectivel...

Reorientation of magnetic anisotropy in obliquely sputtered metallic thin films

Reorientation in the magnetic anisotropy as a function of film thickness has been observed in Co-Ni and Co thin films, obliquely sputtered on a polyethylene terephthalate substrate at a large incidence angle ~70°!. This effect is a consequence of the low magnetocrystalline anisotropy of the films ~fcc structure of Co! and changes in microstructure from nuclei to columns according to the thickne...
