Temperature dependent uniaxial stress relaxation in polyamide 6

  • Published:
Polymer Bulletin Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Summary

Stress relaxation phenomena in polyamide 6 are presented in this paper. Tests were carried out on the tensile testing machine Fu 10 000e, using oar-shaped samples. Dependence of uniaxial stress changes in time, temperature or initial load was observed and measured. Analytical and mechanical models of stress relaxation in polyamide 6 were developed and are presented here.
