PPA characteristics in temperature
PPA characteristics in temperature
(OP)
Hi all.
I'm a CAE expert dealing with FEA simulations performed with ANSYS for Automotive industry. Some of calculated parts are made of composites and are asked to be simulated at various temperatures.
In particular I'm looking for detailed data for this material:
PPA with 30% Glass fiber and 15% PTFE.
I'd need Young Modulus (E) values from -40°C to 150 °C, Poisson coefficient, Linear Thermal expansion coefficient and at least some infos on Tensile Strength @break at the same temps.
Can anyone help me in finding these infos? Material supplier I directly contacted were not very useful.
Thanks a lot in advance
