Influence of Content of Crosslinking Agent on the Micromechanical Properties of Glass-Filled Polyamide 6

摘要

The process of radiation crosslinking helps to improve some mechanical properties of polymer materials. Some types of polymers do not cross-link during radiation crosslinking but degrade. In order to create 3D net in the polymer structure it is necessary to add a crosslinking agent. The specimens were prepared by injection technology with the TAIC crosslinking agent at 0, 1, 2 and 3%. The changes of micromechanical properties of the surface layer were measured by instrumented micro hardness test. It was found that micromechanical properties of the surface layer of the tested polyamide changed.
