Polycarbonate resins are used across a wide range of applications in many different sectors. They offer many advantages to the product designer in physical properties and aesthetics. Polycarbonate is also compounded with a variety of thermoplastics to, and these blends results in an even more diverse property set. It is …

The goal of a failure analysis is to identify the mechanism and cause of the component failure – to distinguish how and why the part broke. A fractographic examination is an essential part of this investigation, particularly in identifying the failure mode. Cracking occurs as a stress relief mechanism as …

The goal of a failure analysis is to discern the mechanism and cause of the component failure – essentially to identify how and why the part broke. Fractography plays critical role in this, particularly in identifying the failure mode. Cracking occurs as a result of the exertion of stresses, both …

The world of plastics is constantly evolving, with new applications such as high-performance polymers, additive manufacturing, and bioplastics continually emerging to transform the field. Common to all applications – old and new – is the importance of mechanical testing that ensures manufacturers are producing quality products. In this webinar we’ll …

Creep is the tendency of a polymeric material to deform permanently under the influence of constant stress, as applied through tensile, compressive, shear, or flexural loading. It occurs as a function of time through extended exposure to levels of stress that are below the yield strength of the material. Given …
