Mechanical properties of amorphous and semi-crystalline semi-aromatic polyamides

We investigate the mechanical properties of amorphous and semi-crystalline semi-aromatic polyamides, polyphthalamides (PPA). Three relaxation processes have been identified by DMTA which is consistent with literature for polyamide. PPA exhibit a brittle-to-ductile transition from a low impact streng...
