Abstract

Abstract

The objective of this paper is to experimentally study the tensile deformation behavior of the polycarbonate (PC), acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene (ABS) and PC/ABS blends (with the blending ratio of PC to ABS being 80∶20, 60∶40, 50∶50 and 40∶60) from low to high strain rates. Using universal MTS-810 machine and split Hopkinson Tension bar (SHTB) testing system, the quasi-static and impact tension tests were carried out at room temperature. The curves of true stress and true strain were obtained and the deformation behavior of PC, ABS and PC/ABS blends were characterized in detail. And the effects of strain rate on the yield stress from low to high strain rates were described with a linear relationship.
