Analysis Of Notch Effect In The Fracture Behaviour Of Additively Manufactured Pla And Graphene Reinforced Pla
THEORETICAL AND APPLIED FRACTURE MECHANICS(2021)
摘要
The fracture assessment of additively manufactured PLA and graphene reinforced PLA (PLA-GR) has been performed in this paper. Tensile and fracture specimens were fabricated with three different raster orientations (0/ 90, 30/-60 and 45/-45) in order to analyse the effect of the printing strategy on the resulting mechanical properties. A total of 30 tensile tests and 120 fracture tests were performed, covering fracture samples with defects of different notch radii (0 mm, 0.25 mm, 0.5 mm, 1 mm and 2 mm). The Theory of Critical Distances was applied over the fracture results, obtaining estimations of the corresponding critical distances and the subsequent predictions of the apparent fracture toughness. Graphene addition has a different effect depending on the raster orientation. Graphene causes a significant improvement of tensile and fracture properties for specimens fabricated at 30/-60 and 45/-45. However, this phenomenon is not observed in raster orientation 0/90. SEM analysis shows a clear change in the fracture micromechanisms between PLA and PLA-GR. It can be also observed how graphene samples of 30/-60 and 45/-45 present a similar aspect of the fracture surfaces, which are different from those observed in raster orientation 0/90.
