  The Elastic Constants of a Swollen Vulcanizate
 
 
Title: The Elastic Constants of a Swollen Vulcanizate
Author: Rigbi, Z.

Appeared in: International journal of polymeric materials
Paging: Volume 3 (1974) nr. 1 pages 29-32

Contents: For certain other purposes, it has been found necessary to determine the stress-elongation ratio curve of a vulcanizate swollen to equilibrium in a solvent, and to estimate the lateral deformation as a function of the longitudinal stretch. The true stress in a highly elastic body at large extension ratios is very different from the nominal stress, based on the original cross-section, because the lateral dimensions become very markedly different from their initial values. In a swollen elastomer in equilibrium with the swelling solvent, the situation is complicated by the fact that under hydrostatic tension or compression, the vulcanizate will absorb or reject solvent and this will affect both the length and cross-section under load.
