An Experimental study on the Viscoelastic Coefficient of Polystyrene

폴리스티렌의 점탄성 계수에 관한 실험적 연구

Stress relaxation experiments were performed to obtain the material properties to be used in the linear viscoelastic study. Master curve of the modulus of polystyrene were obtained by using the time-temperature superposition principle. Because Shyu and Tobolsky's tensile relaxation modulus master curve or Polystyrene material showed very large difference, in-house data were required to calculate the residual stresses in injection-molded products more accurately. Our own experimental data showed that the master curve Shyu's data should be shifted about two orders in material time coordinate.
