Abstract
The influence of edge-distance ratio (E/D) and hole-size ratio (S/D) o n the bearing strength and failure modes of three kinds pf poly(ether ether ketone) were investigated using the pin-type test method (ASTM E 238). The results showed that bearing strength increased with increasi ng E/D and with increasing S/D. In addition, the bearing strength and failure mode depended on the polymer molecular weight and carbon fiber content. The study also showed that there is a transition region for SID or E/D between 2 and 3 where the tension and a combination failure mode are mutually changed. (C) 1997 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
