Abstract
This paper is a first attempt to determine the dynamic fracture toughness of polyurethane foam and to study the effect of impregnation on the fracture toughness. Instrumented impact tests were performed using notched specimens. In order to study the effect of impregnation on the impact properties two different resins were used. The obtained results show that the impregnation increases the dynamic fracture toughness by 27%.
