6.5 Other properties

Figs. 6-12 and 6-13 show weld strength. While strength is not greatly affected, elongation decreases due to the effect of notching. Table 6-2 shows pencil hardness. Fig. 6-14 shows fatigue characteristics. Fig. 6-15 shows dynamic solid viscoelasticity. In addition, values of Poisson ratio, etc., are shown.
