Static and dynamic mechanical characterization of cross-linked polyethylene foams: The effect of density

We performed the complex static and dynamic mechanical characterization of cross-linked polyethylene foams; we investigated the effect of foam density on various mechanical properties and the relationship between cell structure and mechanical behavior. The impact damping and energy absorption proper...
