Notes:
Entangled materials are similar to cellular materials, with regard to their low density anddiscrete architecture. In this work steel wool (sintered in a furnace for various time at twotemperatures) and non sintered steel wool are investigated. Experimental mechanical compressiontests were performed on both materials. Compression stress and Young’s modulus are extracted andcompared with the time and temperature of sintering, and initial density. The results are analyzedusing a classical Toll’s model. A special attention is paid to the value of the exponent which relatesstress and Young’s modulus to density. This exponent ranges from 3 to 5 for non sintered wool, andis close to 3 for the stress law and 4 for the Young’s modulus law for sintered wool
