Tests on the Mechanical Properties of Polymers in the Aspect of an Attempt to Determine the Parameters of the Mooney-Rivlin Hyperelastic Model

The article presents testing of the mechanical properties of SIKA® polymer adhesives of the type PBM, PMM, PM, and PSM in the aspect of an attempt to determine the parameters of the Mooney-Rivlin hyperelastic model. The article contains a literature review on developed models for hyperelastic materials as well as a description of the author’s own results obtained in monaxial tensile and monaxial compression tests conducted on oars and cylindrical samples, respectively. Furthermore, the results of modeling of Mooney-Rivlin hyperelastic model parameters are shown in relation to the value of average parameters for polymers after both a week and a month-and-a-half of ripening.
