  2. Ultra-high-molecular-weight polyethylene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ultra-high-molecular...

    LIROS Dyneema hollow. Dyneema and Spectra are brands of lightweight high-strength oriented-strand gels spun through a spinneret. They have yield strengths as high as 2.4 GPa (350,000 psi) and density as low as 0.97 g/mL (0.035 lb/cu in) (for Dyneema SK75). [12]

  3. Superhard material - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superhard_material

    The incompressibility of a material is quantified by the bulk modulus B, which measures the resistance of a solid to volume compression under hydrostatic stress as B = −Vdp/dV. Here V is the volume, p is pressure, and dp/dV is the partial derivative of pressure with respect to the volume.

  4. Dyneema Composite Fabric - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dyneema_Composite_Fabric

    Dyneema Composite Fabric (DCF), also known as Cuben Fiber (CTF3), is a high-performance non-woven composite material used in high-strength, low-weight applications. It is constructed from a thin sheet of ultra-high-molecular-weight polyethylene ( UHMWPE , "Dyneema") laminated between two sheets of polyester .

  5. Specific modulus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Specific_modulus

    Consider a beam whose cross-sectional area increases in two dimensions, e.g. a solid round beam or a solid square beam. By combining the area and density formulas, we can see that the radius of this beam will vary with approximately the inverse of the square of the density for a given mass.

  6. Work hardening - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Work_hardening

    This may be considered to be the elastic limit and the yield stress is now equal to the fracture toughness, which is much higher than a non-work-hardened steel yield stress. The amount of plastic deformation possible is zero, which is less than the amount of plastic deformation possible for a non-work-hardened material.

  7. M5 fiber - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/M5_fiber

    M5 has a tensile strength of 4 GPa [1] to 9.5GPa. [2] Other aramids- (such as Kevlar and Twaron) or UHMWPE-fibres (such as Dyneema and Spectra) range from 2.2 to 3.9 GPa. [3]M5 has "very high levels" of fire resistance, flame retardancy, and chemical resistance, especially high for an organic fiber.

  8. Strength of materials - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strength_of_materials

    Volume, modulus of elasticity, distribution of forces, and yield strength affect the impact strength of a material. In order for a material or object to have a high impact strength, the stresses must be distributed evenly throughout the object. It also must have a large volume with a low modulus of elasticity and a high material yield strength. [7]

  9. Bulk modulus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bulk_modulus

    It is defined as the ratio of the infinitesimal pressure increase to the resulting relative decrease of the volume. [1] Other moduli describe the material's response to other kinds of stress: the shear modulus describes the response to shear stress, and Young's modulus describes the response to normal (lengthwise stretching) stress.
