Dynamic Fracture Resistance under Plane Strain Conditions of High-Density Polyethylene Nanoclay Composites

Dynamic Fracture Resistance under Plane Strain Conditions of High-Density Polyethylene Nanoclay Composites

Polymer nanoclay composites have received significant attention due to their substantially enhanced mechanical, thermal and barrier properties. However, the effect of these nanoclays on the dynamic fracture resistance of a polymer matrix during fast fracture events has not been documented. In this s...
