CHUNG [+] A polymer-polymer joint obtained by mechanical fastening at a compressive stress of 5% (or less) of the 1% offset yield strength of the polymer (nylon-6) was found to exhibit irreversible decrease in the contact electrical resistance upon repeated fastening (loading) and unfastening [unloading].
MTESTWindows calculates key test parameters, such as ultimate tensile strength, offset yield strength, modulus of elasticity, total elongation, percent of elongation, and many more.
