Relation between Friction Stir Spot Welding Parameters and Mechanical Properties of High Density Polyethylene/Glass Spheres Polymer Composites

Article Preview

Abstract:

In the present study, we attempt to use powder of glass spheres filler and reinforce material in HDPE to produce composite structure and then evaluate its mechanical properties to study the effect of welding parameters and filler content on mechanical properties of HDPE. The effect of welding parameters (tool rotational speed, the plunge depth and the dwell time) on friction stir spot welding properties of high density polyethylene/glass spheres (hollow) polymer composites sheets was studied.
