Description
Fracture toughness of chopped strand glass fiber reinforced particle-filled polymer composite beams was investigated in Mode I and Mode III loading conditions using three-point bend tests. Effects of crack angles on fracture behavior were also studied. The specimens, which have inclined crack at an angle θ to the axis of the specimens, were used to carry out the tests. The specimens were tested with inclination angles 30 deg , 45 deg., 60 deg. and 75 deg. The results are compared with the values of KIC obtained using conventional (θ=90 deg.) specimens. In addition, J integrals were also determined. JIC increases continuously with increasing in crack angle from θ=30 deg. to θ=90 deg. In contrast, JIIIC decreases with the crack inclination angle θ from 30 deg to 90 deg
