Explosive Pressing of Heat Resistant Polymers and Their Composites with PTFE-4

Resumo

Explosive pressing is presented as a promising polymer processing procedure. The effects of varying the static-pressing and explosive-pressing intensities on the thermal characteristics of polyacrylate, phenylone, and composites based on F-4 were compared. The formability of the materials during heat treatment after pressing and subsequent sintering is estimated. The stress and composite composition giving the most heat resistant material are determined.
