Experimental investigation and modeling attempt on the effects of ultraviolet aging on the fatigue behavior of an LDPE semi-crystalline polymer

Abstract

The objective of this study was to investigate the effect of UV irradiation on the fatigue life of a bulk semi-crystalline polymer. Low-density polyethylene samples exposed to different UV irradiation doses were fatigue tested. Fatigue indicator based on dissipated energy per cycle was found to present the best correlation with the experimental fatigue results. A master curve unifying the experimental fatigue results for as-received and UV-aged materials was obtained when subtracting the dissipated energy threshold from the total dissipated energy. Finally, the evolution of the damage with cyclic loading was analyzed and preliminary modeling was attempted.
