YANG Ji-nian, LI Zi-quan. Investigation on the Compressive Performances and Energy Absorption Behavior of Ternary Composite Foam of PP/POE/SGE[J]. Journal of Materials Engineering, 2009, 0(11): 55-58.
The compressive properties of polypropylene(PP)/ethylene-1-octene copolymer(POE)short glass fiber(SGF) ternary foamed composites were tested and analyzed under the quasi-static and uniaxial compressive loading condition.The effects of mass fraction of SGF on the modulus,yield strength and energy absorption behavior were discussed.The results show that the compressive stress-strain curves of PP/POE/SGF foamed composites are consisted of three typical stages: elastic behavior,plastic plateau and densification.The modulus,yield strength and capability of energy absorption are enhanced by the addition of suitable SGF loading.The energy absorption efficiency of foamed composites is improved only when the incorporation of SGF beyond 20% in this investigative range and the reinforcement effect is not remarkable as capability of energy absorption shown.
WU Jie, HAN Fu-sheng, CUI Hong-zhi, CHI Jing, YAO Shu-yu. Relaxation Correlated to Vacancies in B2 Fe-Al Alloys[J]. Journal of Materials Engineering, 2009, 0(11): 59-64.
The internal friction behaviors of air-cooled B2 Fe-Al alloys were examined to understand the movement of atomic defects.Two internal friction peaks were found at around 210℃(P1 peak) and 410℃(P2 peak),respectively.Both the peaks showed relaxational nature and they are correlated to the concentration of vacancies.It is suggested that the P1 peak originates from the reorientation of the divacancies(VVFeVAl),the P2 peak from the interactions between antisite atoms and Fe vacancies.For the Fe-rich B2 Fe-Al alloys,the P2 peak is attributed to the reorientation of the triple defects(2VVFeVAl);for the Al-rich alloys,however,it is caused by the stress-induced migration of Al antisite atoms among the Fe vacancies.
