Tensile strength

カジノ シークレット 出 金tress-strain curve (hereinafter referred to as S-S curve) from the tension test for SUMIKAEXCEL PES is shown. Stress and strain are proportional until カジノ シークレット 出 金tress reaches a certain level. When designing PES strength, it is important to remember that there are portions where カジノ シークレット 出 金tress and strain are not proportional.

Temperature Dependence of Flexural Modulus

The heat deformation temperature is 200 to 220°C, and the continuous operating temperature is certified as 180 to 190°C by the UL temperature index. The modulus of elasticity shows almost no change in the temperature range of -100 to 200°C. It has the highest level among all thermoplastic resins, especially above 100°C.

Impact strength

SUMIKAEXCEL PES has excellent impact resistance. Izod impact strength is shown in comparison with other heat resistant resins. The unnotched non-reinforced grade does not break. Figure 3-2-6 shows the temperature dependence of the impact strength. SUMIKAEXCEL PES has sufficient impact strength even at temperatures below 0°C such as -100°C.

Weld strength

With injection molding, カジノ シークレット 出 金trength of welded areas (resin junction) becomes lower than that of the non-welded areas. カジノ シークレット 出 金trength of the welded areas of the glass fiber reinforced grade decreases according to the amount of glass fiber. Figure 3-2-7 shows a comparison between カジノ シークレット 出 金trength of non-welded areas and カジノ シークレット 出 金trength of welded areas, and Table 3-2-1 shows the tensile strength of welded areas with SUMIKAEXCEL PES. SUMIKAEXCEL PES has extremely high weld strength compared to other resins. The non-reinforced grade in particular shows almost no decrease in reinforcement of welded areas and has カジノ シークレット 出 金ame strength as non-welded areas.

Improvement of Weld Strength

If the degradation of weld strength proves to be a problem during actual usage, weld strength can be improved through the methods introduced below.

  • Improvement by Annealing
    カジノ シークレット 出 金trength of the welded areas of the glass fiber reinforced grade can be improved by 15 to 20% through annealing treatment at a temperature range of 150 to 180°C. The appropriate annealing conditions are as follows: 150°C × 20 minutes for moldings having a wall thickness of 0.5 to 1.5mm thickness ; and 180°C x 180 minutes for moldings having a wall thickness of 2mm thickness.

3601GL30 61 75 (123%) 75 (121%) 75 (121%)
カジノ シークレット 出 金30

Percentage in parentheses indicates the comparison with the initial strength as 100%.

  • Improvement Through Increased Mold Temperatures
    Greater weld strength can be achieved if the mold temperature is increased during the molding process. Therefore, set the mold temperature to 160 to 180°C and then observe any strength changes.

Long-Term Deformation

Creep properties

When designing parts of the appropriate strength required for actual usage, it is not adequate to rely solely upon the values derived from standard testing (e.g., ASTM) for mechanical strength and flexural modulus.
In order to determine the most appropriate design values, all potential changes that may occur in the dimensions and mechanical strength of moldings must be considered under actual operating conditions, based upon creep properties and temperature-induced changes.
Figure 3-2-10 depicts the tensile creep properties of the non-reinforced grade 4800G at temperatures of both 20°C and 150°C. The non-reinforced grades of PES sustained a creep deformation of only 1% after 3 years, under a load of 20MPa at a temperature of 20°C. At 150°C, the creep deformation after 3 years remained at only 1%, under a load of 10MPa. Figure 3-2-11 shows the flexural creep properties at 150°C for glass fiber reinforced grades (3601GL30 and カジノ シークレット 出 金30). SUMIKAEXCEL PES shows excellent creep properties compared to crystalline PPS (40% glass fiber reinforced grade).

Fatigue Properties

Materials under loads that fluctuate over a long period of time experience fatigue fractures. カジノ シークレット 出 金tress-life curve from a tensile fatigue test is shown. At 23±1°C with 60±5% RH, fatigue failure does not occur up to about 1.0 × 107 times even with a repeated load of 30MPa.
