Investigation of Dynamic Viscoelastic Asymmetric Response of PA6 Film Based on Fractional Rheological Model.

Polyamide 6 (PA6) film as a typical viscoelastic material, satisfies the time–temperature superposition (TTS), and demonstrates obvious dynamic strain amplitude and frequency correlation under dynamic load. The investigation of the dynamic mechanical behavior of PA6 film is essential to ensure the safety of these materials in practical applications. In addition, dynamic mechanical property testing under conventional experimental conditions generally focuses on the short-term mechanical performance of materials. Therefore, the dynamic viscoelasticity of PA6 film was tested using a dynamic thermo-mechanical analyzer (DMA) in this study, and the complex modulus master curve was constructed based on time–temperature superposition (TTS) to realize the accelerated characterization of long-term mechanical properties. Furthermore, according to experimentally obtained asymmetric characteristics of the Cole–Cole diagram and the loss modulus master curve of the PA6 film, the parameter distribution of the fractional Zener model and the modified fractional Zener model were compared, and the asymmetric dynamic viscoelastic response of PA6 film under different conditions was systematically investigated using these models. The results indicate that the modified fractional Zener model can truly describe the dynamic asymmetric characteristics of PA6 film, verify the feasibility and advantages of the modified fractional rheological model, and provide some theoretical guidance for exploring the tensile rheological mechanism of PA6 film.
