Hello
Is there a person who would have the indormations about PVC at a temperature of 50 degrees (young's modulus, elasticity, etc.)
Thank you, sincerely:)
Good evening
Be careful because there are a lot of PVC more or less plasticized and with quite different impact characteristics depending on the type of PVC, whether it is in laminated sheet, extruded, etc...
So if it's for your job, it's better to ask the supplier according to the exact characteristic of the PVC you choose.
The thickness also plays a lot at 60° in 350μ or 60° in 700μ or even in extruded 4 mm, it does not react at all the same.

Hello
There is not really a specific type of PVC it is for a BTS project of a circular cutter or when the tube arrives it is at a temperature of about 50 degrees, if you have information on any type of PVC, for a simualtion (thickness 4mm), thank you :-)
Kind regards
In the default materials of SW (Solidworks Material/Plastiques), there is a PVC.
Yes there is PVC, but I need PVC with the characteristics of a 50 degree PVC. Hence the difficulty.
Good evening
Indeed because the only solution would be to create a material with your own characteristics, which is possible in SW.
On the other hand, to define the young's modulus of this material which would be equivalent to PVC at 50° then there (splash splash).
Vicat softening temperature for non-plasticized (non-superchlorinated) PVC is between 65 and 85 °C, which is 78° in fact). This is in the ISO 306-2004 standard. This means that at 50° you are below the softening temperature but in a state where the PVC is less brittle which is looking for depending on the method of cutting (especially by guillotine)
In any case, I don't see how to make the link between the Vicat point which measures softening (which acts in penetration) and the Young's modulus which is relative to the intrinsic elasticity of the material.
Kind regards
