The effect of dried pellets, non-dried pellets, using an opened-vented hole, and using a closed-vented hole on the miscibility, morphology, thermal properties and mechanical properties of RPET/PC blends was investigated. The results indicated that no drying decreases dispersion, thermal properties, and mechanical properties of RPET/PC blends due to hydrolysis degradation of recycled-PET during the injection molding process. Using the venting system with non-dried RPET/PC blends partially improves dispersion, thermal properties and molecular weight of RPET/PC blends processed without drying, giving results that are similar to those processed with drying. Regarding the flexural properties, using the venting system without drying prevents the flexural properties from decreasing in RPET/PC blends, if the amount of RPET is less than 75 wt%. When the content of RPET is over 75 wt%, using the venting system does not eliminate the decrease in flexural properties of RPET/PC blends. When the venting system is applied to non-dried RPET, despite hydrolysis degradation of RPET not being completely eliminated, the damaging effects are nonetheless reduced compared with those samples processed without the venting system. As a result, vented barrel injection molding hardly prevents non-dried RPET/PC blends from having reduced flexural properties when the content of RPET is greater than 75 wt%.展开更多

Experiments are carried out by usingstandard compact tension (CT) specimens. The fracture surfaces areexamined with a scanning electron mi- croscope (SEM). It is shownthat the FCP resistance of PC/ABS blend with 20/100 ABS particles ishigher than that of PC/ABS blend with 40/100 ABS particles. It isfound that proper ABS particle content can result in the tougheningof PC/ABS blends through particle cavitation and shear yielding inmatrix.展开更多

Using the universal MTS-810 machine and the split Hopkinson tension bar （SHTB） testing system, the quasi-static and impact tension tests are carried out at the room temperature. The curves of the true stress and the true strain are obtained. The deformation behaviors of PC, ABS, and PC/ABS blends are characterized in detail. The linear relationship between the strain rate and the yielding stress is given.展开更多

The miscibility of the blends was characterized by ternary solution methods and DSC. The results indicated that the blends were immiscible or partially miscible. The rheological properties of the blends were studied by capillary rheometer. The results show that the melt blends are psedoplastic fluids, the die swelling ratios decrease and the non Newtonian index increases with increase in the weight content of PC in the blends and the blends viscosity curves negatively does not follow the single additivity rule.展开更多
