Engineering Physics Annotation << Back THE FRACTAL MODEL OF MICRO HARDNESS CROSS-LINKEDPOLYMERS Z.M. AMIRSHIKHOVA, G.V. KOZLOV, G.M. MAGOMEDOV The fractal analogues of the well-known Hill’s and Marsh’s equations were obtained. They were shown that cross-linked epoxy polymers microhardness is defined by their structure only, which characterizes by its fractal dimension. The Tabor’s criterion is true for Euclidean solids only. Keywords: epoxy polymer, microhardness, Tabor criterion, structure, loosely-packed matrix. E-mail: i_dolbin@mail.ru
