Physical ageing of polypropylene
Weiss, Jiří ; Kučera, Jaroslav (referee) ; Tocháček, Jiří (advisor)
Physical aging of commercially produced polypropylene homopolymers Mosten was studied. The work is focused on monitoring the changes in physical properties of polymer in the time period 90 days from the date of preparation of the test specimen. The aging of polymers was realized at storage temperatures of 23 and 80 °C. The changes in crystallinity, yield strength, modulus, elongation and impact strength using DSC method, tensile tests and impact tests according to Charpy were monitored. Molecular weight distribution was determined by means of GPC at each polymer. Relationships between the changes in physical properties and polymer molecular weight were sought.

Mechanical Properties of Rheonomic Materials
Minster, Jiří
There are introduced with consideration for engineering applications, constitutive equations small and moderate deformation behaviour of both non-ageing and ageing rheonomic materials, basic methods for identification of their mechanical characteristics and possibilities of an ultimate behaviour assessment.
