    Notes: The method of normalization is used to develop the J-R curve fracture toughness characterization for polymeric materials. This method can develop J-R curves directly from load vs. displacement records without a need for an on-line crack monitoring system. It was used previously to develop J-R curves for metallic materials and is applied here for the first time to polymer materials. Single edge notched bend specimens of rubber toughened nylon 6/6 and rubber toughened amorphous nylon are used in this study. The J-R curves from the method of normalization are compared with the results obtained from the multiple specimen method of ASTM Standard E813. The results show that the method of normalization gives reasonable J-R curves; both methods show agreement over the early J-R curve region. In addition the JIc values are determined for each method and compared. Based on this work it is suggested that the method of normalization could be used as a general test method to develop J-R curves for polymeric materials.

    Notes: At 75/25 concentration ratio, bisphenol a polycarbonate (PC)/styreneacry-lonitrile copolymer (SAN) blend has poor impact resistance compared to PC/ABS. A rubber phase methacrylate-butadiene-styrene (MBS) of core/shell type was dispersed in PC/SAN blend. The morphology of the unmodified and modified blend was investigated. The influence of the acrylonitrile ratio in the SAN on the microstructure was studied. It clearly shows that core/shell resides at the interface between PC and SAN. It seems that core/shell particles enhance the adhesion between the different phases. Their presence influences the interface mobility; i.e., the coalescence of the dispersed phase observed in pure PC/SAN is considerably reduced when the MBS particles are added. The impact resistance of the samples was correlated with the morphology.

    Protein polarization in isotropic membrane hollow-fiber bioreactors (1994)

    Notes: A mathematical model has been developed to predict the coupled hydrodynamics and high-molecular-weight protein transport in mammalian-cell hollow-fiber bioreactors (HFBRs). The analysis applies to reactors with isotropic ultrafiltration membranes under startup conditions when the extracapillary space (ECS) is essentially unobstructed by cells. The model confirms the experimental finding that secondary ECS flows, engendered by the primary flow in the fiber lumens, can cause significant downstream polarization of ECS proteins at typical mammalian-cell HFBR operating conditions. It also reveals that the osmotic activity of the proteins, by curtailing transmembrane fluid fluxes, can influence strongly the outcome of the polarization process. In fact, at order-of-magnitude higher protein concentrations and/or lower recycle flow rates, the secondary flow velocities can be reduced by as much as six orders-of-magnitude throughout the ECS, thereby virtually eliminating the polarization problem. This result has important implications for improved reactor startup procedures.

    Products in methane combustion near surfaces (1994)

    Notes: Emission of carbon monoxide (CO), formaldehyde (CH2O), and unburned methane (CH4) are calculated for premixed methane/air mixtures impinging on a flat surface as functions of surface temperature, equivalence ratio, and strain rate with detailed chemistry involving 46 reversible reactions and 16 species using numerical bifurcation theory. Multiple solutions with different selectivities to stable products are found. On the extinguished branch unburned CH4, molecular hydrogen (H2), CO, and CH2O dominate, whereas on the ignited branch carbon dioxide (CO2) predominates near the surface. Cold walls can promote the selectivity to CO and CH2O near extinction, and high flow rates can increase considerably the formation of CO, CH2O, and unburned CH4. For example, an ignited stoichiometric methane/air mixture (9.5% CH4 in air) impinging on a surface of 1,000 K is calculated to produce 2% CO, 150 ppm CH2O, and 3% unburned CH4 for a strain rate of 500 s-1. Maximum efficiency of CH4 and minimum selectivity to CH2O occur near the stoichiometric ratio, whereas minimum selectivity to CO occurs for fuel lean mixtures. Comparison of combustion near surfaces with freely propagating flames is also shown.

    Ignition and extinction of flames near surfaces: Combustion of CH4 in air (1994)

    Notes: Ignition and extinction characteristics of homogeneous combustion of methane in air near inert surfaces are studied by numerical bifurcation theory for premixed methane/air gases impinging on planar surfaces with detailed chemistry involving 46 reversible reactions and 16 species. One-parameter bifuraction diagrams as functions of surface temperature and two-parameter bifurcation diagrams as functions of equivalence ratio and strain rate are constructed for both isothermal and adiabatic walls. Lean and rich composition limits for ignition and extinction, and energy production are determined from two parameter bifurcation diagrams. For a strain rate of 500 s-1, CH4/air mixtures exhibit hysteresis from ∼ 0.5% up to ∼ 12.5% and from ∼ 5.5% up to ∼ 13.5% near isothermal surfaces and adiabatic walls, respectively. Ignition temperature rises with composition from 1,700 to 1,950 K, without a maximum around the stoichiometric ratio. Under some conditions multiple ignitions and extinctions can occur with up to five multiple solutions, and wall quenching, kinetic limitations, and transport can strongly affect flame stability. Flames near the stoichiometric ratio cannot be extinguished by room temperature surfaces for sufficiently low strain rates. The role of intermediates in enhancing or retarding ignition and extinction is studied, and implications of the effect of catalytic surfaces on homogeneous ignition and extinction are discussed. Removal of H atoms and CH3 radicals by wall adsorption can increase extinction and ignition temperature of 6% CH4 in air by up to 300 K for a strain rate of 500 s-1.

    Notes: Copolymers of L-lactide with 15 or more mole % D-lactide are amorphous, noncrystallizable hydrolytically degradable materials. These glassy materials are brittle in tension and bending. To make these materials suitable for use as load-bearing devices in biomedical applications, toughness has to be enhanced. This is effectively accomplished by introducing a separate degradable rubber phase in the amorphous matrix. Several approaches have been explored: solution blending and coprecipitation of trimethylene carbonate and ∊-caprolactone rubbers and poly(lactide), preparation of ABA triblock copolymers and blending of ABA block copolymers with the amorphous poly(lactide) matrix. In all cases very tough materials could be prepared. These materials are easily processable by compression molding at relatively low temperatures.

    Notes: In recent years, the development of high performance Spectra® fibers has received increasing attention in industry. Because of the outstanding capability to absorb energy, these polyethylene fibers are frequently used in damage tolerant composite materials to protect equipment, apparatus, and/or people against blast and debris of explosion or projectiles. Since the fiber is thermally stable, it is possible to design composite structures that are suitable for use in applications where prolonged exposure to flame is anticipated. In this paper, we report the findings obtained in a recent flammability evaluation of a Spectra composite subjected to a torch flame, and to hot metal balls. The Spectra composite structures that will be discussed were found to withstand these exposures without burning and the smoke generation and toxic gas emission were far below the limits set in the standard for current aircraft interior materials.

    Notes: The dynamic rheological properties of poly(etherimide)/poly(etheretherketone)/liquid crystalline polymer (LCP) ternary blends were measured in order to correlate these properties with the morphology obtained after extrusion. The viscosity radio, ηd/ηm, where ηd = disperse phase viscosity and ηm = matrix viscosity, had to be redefined. Below 50 wt% LCP, ηd = ηLCP, ηm = ηPEEK+PEI and ηd/ηm 〈 1. Above 50 wt% LCP, ηd = ηPEEK+PEI, ηm = ηLCP and ηd/ηm 〉 1. Fibrillar morphologies were obtained in both cases, except below a concentration of 20 wt% LCP. At low concentrations of LCP the ternary blends had lower viscosities than the component polymers, showing a flow promotion effect of the LCP on the PEI- and PEEK-rich phases.

    Analysis of the temperature rise in the projectile and extended chain polyethylene fiber composite armor during ballistic impact and penetration (1994)

    Notes: The ultra-high strength/modulus, extended chain polyethylene fiber (Spectra® fiber) composite has shown great potential as a lightweight armor material with its extraordinary capability of absorbing the kinetic energy of projectiles. But the relatively low melting point of this fiber (∼ 145°C) has caused concerns regarding the effect of temperature rise during the impact/penetration process on the performance as armor material. In this article, an analysis of temperature rise in projectile and the fiber composite during the impact/penetration process is described. Combining the simulation of impact deformation by finite element analysis and the simulation of temperature rise by a finite difference approximation of the related dynamic equations, the temperature rise caused by the projectile/composite interaction was estimated. Results show that there is a significant temperature rise at the projectile/composite interface due to the friction but that the short length of time involved in the process and the low thermal conductivity of Spectra fiber composite keep the temperature rise in a very small region (in the order of 0.001 cm) around the interface during the impact/penetration process. Consequently, the volume that is affected by the temperature rise is very small, in the order of total 0.001 cm3 around the projectile, and this is too small to generate any detectable effect on the armor performance. After the projectile is stopped, however, substantial heating of fiber composite can occur under specific conditions as the result of heat flow from the hot projectile embedded in the composite. This heating of fibers, however, is a postmortem effect and hence inconsequential to the ballistic performance of the composite armor.

    Notes: The curing of epoxy-amine polymer has been modeled by the reaction of functional groups, and the mole balance of these is governed by a set of six nonlinear differential equations. In this work, we have first developed a complete analytical solution for isothermal curing. For nonisothermal curing, we have divided the domain of hydroxyl group concentration β into small increments Δβ and adopted our analytical results for this domain. In addition, we solved the energy balance equation analytically and obtained the temperature rise for Δβ. We have compared our results with those obtained from the Runge Kutta numerical solutions. We have shown that our semianalytical technique is about a thousand times more efficient and faster.
