Notes:
The fracture behavior of acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene (ABS) was investigated using the J-integral method under monotonic loading. Two ways were used to monitor the onset of crack growth: the dyeing method and the length of craze region ahead of initial notch. The blunting at the crack tip and crack growth mechanism for ABS Was observed using a scanning electron microscope. Before the onset of crack growth, the energy put into material was dissipated to create crazes ahead of the initial notch and to deform the material at the crack tip. A part of the energy was released to create a new crack surface after the onset, of crack growth.
