摘要

Polymers are increasingly utilized in engineering applications that can experience high loading rates, necessitating increased understanding of their response under such conditions. The tamped Richtmyer-Meshkov Instability (RMI) method was used to characterize the equation of state and dynamic strength of the polymer Epon 828 cured with Diethanolamine (DEA). Plate impact experiments that drove a uniaxial shock compression wave across a sinusoidally corrugated metal-polymer interface were performed to generate shock stresses from 4-12 GPa and strain rates of approximately \(10^6\) 10 6 1/s in the polymer. X-ray phase contrast imaging recorded the shock motion in the polymer and subsequent interface evolution. Analysis of this data yielded the polymer equation of state and, in conjunction with numerical modeling, the dynamic strength. The equation of state was validated against one-dimensional plate impact experiments from existing literature. The dynamic strength was compared to prior data for Epon 828 and related polymers at lower strain rates and found to exhibit significant strain rate and pressure-hardening effects. The strength of the Epon 828 polymer at \(10^6\) 10 6 1/s was found to be approximately 1.5 GPa, suggesting that it is comparable to the strength of high strength metals at these dynamic conditions.
