Polylactide plastic (PLA) prototypes are studied by means of additive technology to determine their strength properties in case of tension along the grain. In this article, testing of PLA and its compound PLA HP was carried out. Mechanical properties (yield limit, Poisson’s ratio, Young’s modulus) are determined. Analysis of results related to comparison of PLA and PLA HP was realized. Plastic is also studied using microscope for determination of adhesion influence on strength characteristics.
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.
