Abstract

Tension and bending fatigue tests were carried out to investigate the fatigue behavior of polymethyl methacrylate for edge attachment element at different temperatures. Test results showed that the fatigue performances of the whole edge attachment assemble were extraordinary sensitive to experimental temperature. With increasing of temperature, the captive tension strength and tension fatigue strength decreased evidently. The captive bending strength and bending fatigue strength at uniform lifetime were maximal at lower temperature, and were minimum at room temperature.
