Experimental investigations of uniaxial and biaxial cold stretching within PC‐films and bars using optical measurements

Abstract: Polycarbonate (PC) is an amorphous polymer that is an extremely robust material with a high tenacity, and thus suitable for a lightweight construction with glass‐like transparency. Due to these advantageous properties, PC is often used in industry for example in medical devices, automotive headlamps, sporting equipment, electronics, and a variety of other products. PC is often subjected to uniaxial and biaxial loading conditions. Therefore, reliable material models have to take into account the various resulting experimental effects. For those reasons, we investigate PC specimens under uniaxial and biaxial loading by using different stretch rates and loading scenarios. In addition to that, we propose methods for optical measurement of local stretches to obtain the approximated local true stress. In future work, the displacement fields and the resulting reaction forces will be used for parameter identification of constitutive equations.
