Abstract
en
The photochemical reaction of poly(ether ether ketone) (PEEK) sheets under tensile loads has been investigated. Two types of UV irradiation tests were carried out in a vacuum environment: with and without a cooling apparatus. Chemical structures, thermal properties, and mechanical properties were measured to clarify photo-deterioration. Chemical analysis based on Fourier Transform Infrared Spectrometry (FT-IR) and X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS) showed photochemical scission caused by UV exposure. Thermal properties, measured by Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC), indicated that a crosslinking reaction occurred during the radiation tests. Tensile properties of PEEK sheets after UV radiation clearly showed a tendency to embrittlement affected not only by crosslinking but also by the orientation of molecular chains resulting from the temperature rise of the specimens. Furthermore, applied tensile stress during exposure accelerated molecular scission and disturbed the crosslinking effects of the tensile properties.
