Abstract:In the automotive industry and not only, more and more attempts are being made to replace parts made of metals with those made of plastics, due to their low weight and low manufacturing cost. Thus, a detailed knowledge of the mechanical properties of polymeric materials is a must. This paper presents a study of the influence of temperature on the tensile mechanical properties of semicrystalline polyphthalamide (PPA). Dog bone specimens were obtained by injection molding and, in order to eliminate the possible … Show more
