Notes:
Criteria for craze initiation in poly(methyl methacrylate) have been investigated under various combined loadings including biaxial tension and torsion-compression at 65°C in air and at room temperature in a crazing agent, kerosene. Environmental crazes are observed even under torsion-compression loading when air crazing does not occur, and the stress locus for environmental crazing is very different from that for air crazing. A theoretical model analogous to the Cottrell model in crystal plasticity is proposed. Theoretical crazing loci derived from the model are compared with the experimental results.
