Craze-Initiation Kinetics in Polystyrene
In this study it is shown, for a commercial polystyrene grade, that the strain-rate dependence of craze initiation is equivalent to that of yielding. This implies that the kinetics of craze initiation are determined by the nonlinear flow behavior, and that the actual cavitation process is governed by an additional, apparently rateindependent, criterion. © 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

متن کاملCraze initiation in glassy polymers
In this work a method is presented that can be used to predict craze initiation in glassy polymers. The approach is based on the view that the development of a craze is preceded by de formation of a localised plastic deformation zone. As this zone develops, the hydrostatic stress increases, and, when exceeding a critical stress level, cavitation will take place, leading to local development of ...
متن کاملKinetics of Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET)and Polystyrene (PS) Dynamic Pyrolysis
Thermo-chemical treatment (TCT) such as pyrolysis is getting recognized as a valid route for (i) materials and valuable products and petrochemicals recovery; (ii) waste recycling; and (iii) elemental characterization. Pyrolysis is also receiving renewed attention for its operational, economical and environmental advantages. In this study, samples of polyethylene terephthalate (PET) and polystyr...
متن کاملChemical Kinetics and Mechanism of Polystyrene Thermal Decomposition
Chemical kinetics on thermal decomposition of polystyrene was studied by integrating the non-isothermal differential and integral methods. For decomposition of polystyrene in environment with only nitrogen, a mass loss stage was found at 282.9C to 398.2C. The maximum mass-loss rate was at 372.4C. Kinetic analysis results indicated that it is a first-order chemical reaction. Thermal decompositio...
متن کاملActin bundling: initiation mechanisms and kinetics.
Bundling of rapidly polymerizing actin filaments underlies the dynamics of filopodial protrusions that play an important role in cell migration and cell-cell interaction. Recently, the formation of actin bundles has been reconstituted in vitro, and two scenarios of bundle initiation, involving binding of two filament tips and, alternatively, linking of the tip of one filament to the side of the...
