moulding. Samples were prepared according to ASTM D790-17 and were tested at three
different strain rates of 1s-1, 10s-1 and 100s-1. Flexure properties of the samples being a
matrix dominated property were found to be highly strain rate dependent. At the nominal and
moderate strain rates of 1s-1 and 10s-1 samples showed a small variation in flexure strength
and flexure modulus. While the same specimen when tested at 100s-1 depicted increased …
