Random Effects in Fracture Properties (Ferry)

Fracture Strength and Strain Are • Time and Temperature Dependent.• Affected by (Macro- and) Micro-scopic

Inhomogeneities.

The measured strength is always much lower than the strength calculated from the Primary Bond Strength.

Silicone Mold

Current ABCD:Current ABCD:Specimen GeometrySpecimen Geometry

Silicone MoldSilicone Mold

Silicone Mold with Protrusions

Why Silicone Mold?• To Introduce Uniform

Inhomogeneities– Mix Contains Inhomogeneities– Known Stress Concentration– Known Location of Fracture

• To Minimize Handling of Specimen (Test without Removing Mold)

• Silicone Mold is Still Flexible at -60C

Conclusions 1• Silicone mold improved repeatability• Polymer modification increased the

strength and, in turn, lowered the cracking temperature

• ABCD highly correlated with TSRST• MP1a using ABCD strength showed

the best correlation with TSRST

Conclusions 2• Theoretically calculated thermal

stress agreed well with the measured with ABCD

• Effects of CTE were significant and needs further evaluation

Work Plan

• Test Binders from Various Sources• ABCD Hardware Upgrade for More

Accurate Strength Measurements• Refine Test Procedure

• Poor repeatability– Cracking Temp = 4.1C– Fracture Strength = 0.71 MPa

• Coefficient of Determinations (r2)– With TSRST = 0.62– With MP1a = 0.53
