Abstract

Metal-polymer laminates were subjected to quasi-static flexural and indentation loading. The laminates were made of two aluminium skins heat-bonded (laminated) to a core made of polyethylene plastic material. The samples were trimmed into standard-sized beams and panels which were then tested in flexural and indentation using the Instron universal testing machine at loading rates of 1 mm/min, 10 mm/min and 100 mm/min. The load-displacement and energy absorption curves of the composite beams were recorded. It was found that the loading rate has a large effect on flexural and indentation behaviour of aluminium composite laminate.
