Influence of Irradiation Doses on Mechanical Properties of Glass Fiber Filled PBT

Abstract:

The submitted paper compares mechanical properties of the hard surface layer of modified PBT filled by 35% of glass fibers. Hard surface layer was made by radiation cross-linking technology which allows polymer materials modification followed by the change of their end-use properties. The surface layer of polymer material is modified by β – radiation. When the polymer material is exposed to the β – radiation, it is possible to observe changes of the surface layer at applied load. The mechanical properties were measured by nanohardness test with using the DSI method (Depth Sensing Indentation).
