    Notes: Crack healing in poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) by methanol treatment at 40°C-60°C has been investigated. It is found that the methanol treatment reduces the glass transition temperature in PMMA. Crack healing only occurs at an operating temperature higher than the effective glass transition temperature. There are two distinctive stages for crack healing based on the recovery of mechanical strength. The first stage corresponds to the progressive healing due to wetting, which has a constant crack closure rate at a given temperature. Immediately following the first stage, the second stage corresponding to diffusion enhances the quality of healing behavior. The surface morphologies obtained during healing and after fracture tests confirm these two stages. By comparing the fracture stress with the fractography, the fracture surface for stage I of crack healing is coplanar to the original crack surface. On the other hand, the original crack surface is destroyed in stage II of crack healing. It occurs in the region incorporating the original healed surface and appears to be like the Virgin fracture surface. It is also found that the tensile fracture stress of PMMA treated by methanol can recover to that of the virgin material. In addition, it is interesting to find that after sustained methanol treatment, the “snake bone” phenomenon on the fracture surface emerges.

    Notes: The effect of cold work on the transport of liquid methanol in crosslinked PMMA disks has been determined at temperatures from 35-56°C. Deformed samples absorb at fast rates with kinetics that approach those of Fickian diffusion. Undeformed samples sorb at lower rates and the kinetics tend toward those of Case II transport. Shape recovery accompanied swelling in deformed samples. Samples saturated with methanol were desorbed in cyclohexanol. Resorption of desorbed samples showed fast rates for both deformed and undeformed samples and matched those of the absorption cycle in deformed samples. An analogy is made between the microstructure due to cold work and due to swelling.

    Notes: Abstract The edge dislocations near a cracked sliding interface were investigated. A continuous distribution of edge dislocations with Burgers vector along the y direction was used to simulate a crack of finite length along the sliding interface. From the dislocation distribution the stress field in the entire space was obtained. The stress intensity factors at both crack tips and image force on the edge dislocation were derived. The effects of the dislocation source and shear modulus ratio on both stress intensity factors and image force were also studied. Only mode I stress intensity factors at both tips were found in the composite materials with a sliding interface. The edge dislocations with Burgers vector along the y direction emitted from the crack always shield it to prevent propagation. The above results may reduce to an edge dislocation near a semi-infinite crack along a sliding interface including a sliding grain boundary.

    Notes: Abstract A comparison of elastic interaction of a dislocation and a crack for four bonding conditions of the crack plane was made. Four cases of single crystalline material, sliding grain boundary, perfectly bonded interface, and sliding interface were considered. The stress intensity factors arising from edge and screw dislocations and their image forces for the above four cases were compared. The stress intensity factor at a crack tip along the perfectly bonded interface arising from screw dislocation can be obtained from that in a single crystalline material if the shear modulus in the single crystalline material is replaced by the harmonic mean of both shear moduli in the bimaterial. The stress intensity factor at a crack tip along the sliding interface arising from edge dislocation in the bimaterial can be obtained from that along the sliding grain boundary in the single material if the μ/(1−ν) in the single material is substituted by the harmonic mean of μ/(1− ν) in the bimaterial where μ and ν are the shear modulus and Poisson's ratio, respectively. The solutions of screw dislocation near a crack along the sliding grain boundary and sliding interface are the same as that of screw dislocation and its mirror image. Generally, the effect of edge dislocation for perfectly bonded interface on the crack propagation is more pronounced than that for the sliding interface. The effect of edge dislocation on the crack propagation is mixed mode for the cases of perfectly bonded interface and single crystalline material, but mode I fracture for the cases of sliding interface and sliding grain boundary. All curves of Fx versus distance r from the dislocation at interface to the right-hand crack tip are similar to one another regardless of dislocation source for both sliding interface and perfectly bonded interface. The level of Fx for m=0 is larger than that for m=−1.

    Notes: The fracture behavior of oriented poly (methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) has been investigated. The stress intensity factor KIC, characteristic distance a, and angle θ of switching propagation direction decrease with increasing draw ratio in the range of 1.25 and 3.25. The microstructures such as the plastic zone and the features of morphology are in good agreement with the variations of these three variables, i.e., KIC, a, and θ.

    Notes: Methanol-induced opacity in poly (methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) is investigated subject to two cooling processes; furnace cooling and air cooling. The glass transition temperature of PMMA decreases with increasing time of exposure to methanol at 40-60°C and then increases during cooling, due to progressive desorption. Voids form during cooling as long as specimen temperature remains above its glass transition temperature. Since furnace cooling affords enough time for holes to expand larger than the light wavelengths, the transmittance of furnace-cooled PMMA is independent of wavelength. The transmittance of PMMA subjected to rapid cooling in the air is wavelength dependent due to scattering by holes smaller than light wavelengths. The transmittance of PMMA bearing a given weight gain of methanol (measured at absorption temperature) prior to cooling for furance cooling is lower than that for the same material subjected to air cooling. A sharp front between outer and inner regions is found in specimens removed quickly from the thermostated water bath to air at ambient temperature.

    Notes: The crack healing induced by ethanol in poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) has been studied at temperatures of 40-60°C. Crack healing occurs because the effective glass transition temperature of PMMA is reduced to below the test temperature by ethanol plasticization. It is found that crack closure rate is constant at a given temperature. The fracture strength of healed PMMA is lower than that of the original samples. By comparing the fracture stress with the morphology of the crack edge on the PMMA surface, we found that a high degree of swelling is responsible for the incomplete recovery of mechanical strength. The fractography of the completely healed sample shows a very different fracture morphology from that of virgin PMMA. The transport of ethanol in PMMA also is studied. At lower temperatures, transport is described by ideal Case II behavior. As the temperature increases, the kinetics shift from ideal Case II to anomalous behavior. The first stage of crack healing is controlled by Case I transport. © 1994 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: Crack healing induced by carbon tetrachloride in polycarbonate has been studied at temperatures in the range of 40-60°C. The carbon tetrachloride treatment reduces the glass transition temperature of polycarbonate. Crack healing is observed because the effective glass transition temperature in polycarbonate is reduced to below the test temperature by the carbon tetrachloride treatment. Two distinctive stages of crack healing are divided based on the recovery of mechanical strength and fractograph. The first stage corresponds to the progressive healing due to the convolution of wetting and self-diffusion, which has a constant crack closure rate. Immediately following the first stage, the second stage, corresponding to the self-diffusion of polymer chain, enhances the quality of healing behavior. The transport of carbon tetrachloride in polycarbonate consists of case I (concentration gradient controlled) and case II (relaxation controlled) behaviors. The direction of case II is opposite to that of case I. The solubility decreases with increasing temperature, but diffusivity and velocity for mass transfer, crack closure rate, and diffusion coefficient for the diffusion front have the opposite trend. The first stage of crack healing is controlled by case II transport. The transport of carbon tetrachloride changes the fracture behavior of polycarbonate from ductile to brittle. A comparison of crack healing in polycarbonate and poly (methyl methacrylate) is made. © 1994 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: The effect of methanol on optical property of irradiated poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) has been investigated. The gamma irradiation enhances the methanol transport in PMMA. The activation energies of diffusivity for case I and velocity for case II decreases with increasing gamma ray dose. For the same wavelength, in the range 350-800 nm, the transmittance decreases with increasig gamma ray dose. The equation of transmittance I with gamma ray dose φ at the wavelength 405 nm is I = I0 exp(-0.06φ1/2), where I0 is the transmittance of virgin PMMA. When the irradiated PMMA is immersed into methanol bath, the yellow color fades out gradually. The recovery of transmittance increases with methanol content in irradiated PMMA. The boundary to separate the outer region (solvent affected zone) from the inner region (no solvent-affected zone) is also studied. The rate of boundary movement increases with gamma ray dose.
