Double-cantilever beam cleavage specimens are very useful in characterizing the fracture behavior of isotropic, homogeneous, brittle, and semibrittle polymers. However, until this time they have not been used for ductile materials such as rubber-modified polymers or polycarbonates because of excessive yielding or breakage of the specimen arms before crack propagation can occur. In order to make it possible to measure the fracture surface work of these materials, a new sandwich cleavage specimen was developed by bonding rigid reinforcement plates to both sides of the specimen sheet. With this sandwich-tapered double-cantilever beam cleavage specimen, one can create conditions under which controlled crack propagation through tough ductile materials and measurement of the fracture surface work-two previously unobtainable results-are readily determined. In this paper, the design and construction of the sandwich specimens, test procedure, and the data analysis will be discussed in detail.
