3.3.2 Modulus of Elasticity<br />

The 16 additional modulus of elasticity 6x12 inch cylinders provided improved data <strong>for</strong><br />

developing a better relation <strong>for</strong> predicting E of expanded slate HPLC as given below.<br />

0.9<br />

E c = ((33,000 f ' − 9000)( w /100) + 100,000)(117.75/ w )<br />

That proposed equation is shown in Figure 3.7.<br />
