A comparison was made between experimental and computed dependencies of the dynamic modulus, and the mechanical loss tangent of the composites with a glassy polymer matrix - styrene-acrylonitrile (SAN) or (SAN-P) acrylonitrile-methacrylate-styrene in ASA plastic (acrylonitrile-styrene-acrylic) copolymer with particles of a peroxidic butylacrylate rubber (BAR-P). The composite material was obtained by emulsion polymerization.
An algorithm was developed for determining, prediction and optimization of the viscoelastic properties of composite materials with spherically layered inclusions by varying microstructure parameters.
The dynamic mechanical characteristics of the grafted copolymer that form a part of the ASA plastic allow the viscoelastic properties of ASA plastic to be predicted with better precision than if the dispersed face were identified with the BAR-P itself.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
