Effect of a dispersed filler on the modulus of elasticity of composites in the glassy state

  • Published:
Polymer Mechanics Aims and scope

Abstract

An expression is proposed for predicting the reinforcement of composites by a dispersed filler in both the rubbery and glassy states with allowance for the internal thermal stresses in the polymer matrix. It is shown that by varying the plasticizer concentration in composites based on polyvinyl chloride it is possible to regulate the thermal stresses in the polymer matrix. The time-stress and time-concentration superposition principles are shown to be applicable to the dependence of the relative modulus of elasticity on filler concentration for glassy composites.
