| Summary: | Viscoelastic composites are strong and handle vibration damping quite well, which allows them to be used in a wide variety of applications. Thus, there is a need to determine the optimal amount of fiber to ensure high mechanical and dynamic performance with as little interference as possible. The purpose of this work is to find the most appropriate percentage of organic fiber – cellulose derived from corn stalks in a polylactic acid matrix, studying the changes in damping characteristics, tensile strength, bend-test. As parameters for comparison, the coefficient of bending and breaking strength, modules of accumulation and losses, factor
were chosen. It was found that strength indicators decrease with fiber fraction growth. While the damping factor at the glass transition temperature increases. In order to confirm the results obtained, the calculation of the
factor was used. The study investigates the damping factor’s dependence on the mechanical properties. It is shown that there is a correlation between moduli and bending strength with increasing fiber fraction. The scientific novelty of this work is the study of natural viscoelastic composites with different proportions of reinforcing fibers based on mechanical and dynamic characteristics in order to create and apply biodegradable viscoelastic composites in various fields. |
