Tensile Property Test Analysis of Double Protein Modified Fiber

Abstract

In order to study the tensile mechanical properties of the double protein modified fiber. Tensile breaking property and stress relaxation were analyzed and proper mechanical models were selected for fitting. The analysis shows that: in dry and wet, the straight tensile breaking tenacity of the double protein modified fiber is weaker than that of the modified soybean protein fiber, the elongation at break and initial modulus are near to those of the modified soybean protein fiber, the breaking tenacity of the double protein modified fiber increases slightly when wet while the elongation at break and initial modulus decline a little. In knotted and looped, the double protein modified fiber’s tensile breaking tenacity is weaker than that of the modified soybean protein and its tensile breaking strength and elongation at break decrease differently. The fitting reveals that the four element nonlinear viscoelastic model is the best to describe straight tensile. The two optimal models for knotted and looped tensile are the four element nonlinear viscoelastic model and the Improved Zurek model. In addition, the six element viscoelastic plasticity model is appropriate to simulate stress relaxation.
