Determination of physic and mechanical parameters of high-density polyethylene based on relaxation curves due to the presence of hydroxyapatite and ionizing radiation

摘要

Relatively low physical and mechanical parameters of polymers negatively affect the possibility of using this material everywhere. There are ways to improve the elastic and rheological characteristics of some varieties of polymers: addition of additives and irradiation with ionizing radiation. However, these methods can lead both to the cross-linking of polymer molecules with the improvement of its parameters, and to its destruction. In this article shown the theoretical definition of physic and mechanical parameters of high-density polyethylene by known stress relaxation curves, and a comparison of the experimental data of high-density polyethylene (HDPE) with the data obtained theoretically, which, in turn, saves material resources and man-hours for the experiment and its subsequent analysis.
