Product stress whitening when bent
Problembeschreibung
The product locally whitens when subjected to bending or impact loads
Ursachenanalyse
Debonding occurs at the interface between fibers and the PP matrix, producing micropores that scatter light; long fiber ends are strong stress concentration points initiating silver streaks; residual stress from molding superimposed with external load
Lösung
Improve the interfacial bonding strength between glass fiber and PP (coupling agent + grafted PP); optimize the fiber aspect ratio; anneal to eliminate molding internal stress
Wichtigste Erkenntnis
Stress whitening is the macroscopic manifestation of fiber-matrix interfacial debonding
