Study of microstructure and fracture properties of blunt notched and sharp cracked high density polyethylene specimens

Abstract This paper examines the effect of a broad range of crosshead speed (0.05 to 100 mm/min) and a small range of temperature (25 °C and 45 °C) on the failure behaviour of high density polyethylene (HDPE) specimens containing a) standard size blunt notch and b) standard size blunt notch plus sma...
