Journal Article
Ibhadon, A. O. (1998). Fracture mechanics of polypropylene: effect of molecular characteristics, crystallisation conditions, and annealing on morphology and impact performance. Journal of Applied Polymer Science, 69(13), 2657-2661. https://doi.org/10.1002/%28SICI%291097-4628%2819980926%2969%3A13%3C2657%3A%3AAID-APP16%3E3.0.CO%3B2-R

Fracture mechanics study of polypropylene samples of various molecular weight, obtained under different crystallizations conditions, is reported. Fracture toughness values obtained at high speed of impact as well as at low temperatures increased with...
