Abstract

High-density polyethylene (HDPE) materials are widely used in many places in our daily life. These materials are preferred due to their recyclability, product variety, variety of production types, and low cost per unit production. Besides all these features, it is also important that the material can be produced with high mechanical properties by applying different production methods or processes. The investigation of its mechanical properties is becoming also an important issue. In this study, deformation of 1%, 5%, 10%, 15%, 30%, 40%, and 50% ratios were realized by applying a compression process to high-density polyethylene materials. Strip samples were taken out of the compressed samples and subjected to the tensile test process. After the tensile test, the tensile strength values showed differences with increasing deformation rates, and it was observed that the highest value was realized at 10% deformation rate.
