The effects of water and frequency on fatigue crack growth rate in modified and unmodified Polyvinyl Chloride

A study of the influence of water environments on the cyclic fatigue crack behavior of polyvinyl chloride (PVC), with (PVC-M) and without (PVC-U) chlorinated polyethylene (CPE) impact modifier was undertaken and compared with corresponding results in air. Two frequencies of 1 and 7 Hz were applied t...
