Relaxation properties of polyoxymethylene and ethylene–octene copolymer blend in solid and melt states
(2012-08-30)
Rheological properties of polyoxymethylene (POM) and ethylene–octene copolymer (EOC) in solid and melt states were investigated. Blends were prepared with a twin screw extruder at broad component wt-to-wt ratios (10, 30, 50, 70, 90 wt% of EOC). The morphology as well as calorimetric, rheological, and elastic properties of the blends were studied. The investigation showed that POM/EOC blends were heterogeneous in nature and had a broad phase transition region between 30 and 70 wt% of POM. Because during processing ...

Influence Of The Fiber-Matrix-Interaction On The Fracture Behavior Of Regenerated Cellulose Fiber Reinforced Polypropylene
(Society of Plastics Engineers, 2017)
This investigation focuses on the fiber-matrix-interaction of man-made cellulose fibers (RCF) in a PP matrix with an additional MAPP content using an energetic evaluation of the single fiber pull-out test (SFPT). Furthermore glass fibers were characterized for reference purposes. With the SFPT the interfacial shear strength (IFFS) and the critical fiber length (lc) as well as the consumed energy of a fiber pull-out and a fiber rupture were determined. In a following step the resulting values of lc were related to the ...

Joining Investigations of Polymer-Metal-Hybrids for Permanantly Non-Leaking Applications
(Society of Plastics Engineers, 2016)
The demand for light-weight construction and economic efficiency has led to the development of light-weight construction strategies, i.e., multi-material design, in many areas of industry. Here, the property profiles of the composite partners are utilized synergetically. Plastic-metal hybrid composites possess a large amount of potential in this regard owing to the weight reduction that can be achieved in the composite and the simultaneous enhancement of the mechanical properties.
Hybrid components have already ...

Development of a Flexible Polymer Joining Center Capable of Performing Multiple Joining Processes Using Different Methods in a Single Cycle
(Society of Plastics Engineers, 2016)
Goal of this research and innovation project is the implementation of a flexible polymer joining center as a prototype machine integrating different friction welding methods. This prototype joining cell combines (a) flexibility by being capable of performing joining processes in any order in a single flow with (b) modularity by integrating unified interfaces for exchanging joining modules, and (c) scalability by offering a wide range of setups for smaller to larger work pieces. Corresponding interfaces to up- and ...

Pull and Foam - Injection moulding method: Foamed ribs for stiffening plane components
(Society of Plastics Engineers, 2012)
The pull and foam method is a foam injection moulding method which is currently being developed at the Institut für Werkstofftechnik (IfW) (Institute of Materials Engineering) at the University of Kassel. The processing principle represents an alternative to the existing foam injection moulding special procedures and introduces the possibility to partially foam a component. In so doing, thin-walled, hardly foamed components with foamed ribs can be made in one processing step, thus also components with graded ...
