Poisson's ratio of polymeric materials, although generally assumed as a constant, is known to display a viscoelastic dependence on time, temperature, and strain. This article investigates the phenomenology of this dependence on two crosslinked epoxy systems with different glass transition temperatures. Poisson's ratio measurements are performed by contact extensometers simultaneously measuring the axial and transverse deformations under two different tensile testing conditions: (i) constant deformation rate, in which the effects of strain, strain rate, and temperature are highlighted; (ii) stress relaxation (or constant deformation), where the dependence of Poisson's ratio on time is studied at various strain levels. The viscoelastic Poisson's ratio increases as strain, temperature, and time increases, with trends markedly depending on the materials glass transition.

Abstract
Poisson's ratio of polymeric materials, although generally assumed as a constant, is known to display a viscoelastic dependence on time, temperature, and strain. This article investigates the phenomenology of this dependence on two crosslinked epoxy systems with different glass transition temperatures. Poisson's ratio measurements are performed by contact extensometers simultaneously measuring the axial and transverse deformations under two different tensile testing conditions: (i) constant deformation rate, in which the effects of strain, strain rate, and temperature are highlighted; (ii) stress relaxation (or constant deformation), where the dependence of Poisson's ratio on time is studied at various strain levels. The viscoelastic Poisson's ratio increases as strain, temperature, and time increases, with trends markedly depending on the materials glass transition.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
