Nanoindentation analysis of oriented polypropylene: Influence of elastic properties in tension and compression

Yes === Polypropylene has been oriented by solid-phase deformation processing to draw ratios up to ∼16, increasing tensile stiffness along the draw direction by factors up to 12. Nanoindentation of these materials showed that moduli obtained for indenter tip motion along the drawing direction (3) in...
