This study aimed to determine how three different energy drink types affected the force decay of three distinct brands of clear, short elastomeric chains over various time intervals.
In this study, 600 pieces of clear, short elastomeric chains from three brands were examined. The initial force was measured immediately using a digital scale and after 1, 7, 14, 21, and 28 days. These intervals followed immersion in the respective energy drink for 5 minutes twice daily. Using one-way ANOVA and Tukey's HSD tests, the percentage of force decay was computed and compared across the different elastic brands, time intervals, and energy drinks.
The force degradation of various elastic brands immersed in different energy drinks increased over time, following a similar pattern of decay. By the end of the fourth week, there were highly significant differences in the force decay percentage, varying from 68% to 83%.
Considering the effects of brands, duration, and energy drinks, all the evaluated brands exhibited similar patterns of force decay, with highly significant differences noted. The force decay in Coca-Cola Energy and Fire ball drinks is relatively higher than in other beverages.
本研究旨在确定三种不同类型的能量饮料如何在不同时间间隔内影响三种不同品牌的透明短弹性链的力衰减。
在本研究中，对来自三个品牌的600条透明短弹性链进行了检查。使用数字秤立即测量初始力，并在1、7、14、21和28天后测量。这些时间间隔是在每天两次将弹性链浸入相应能量饮料5分钟之后。使用单向方差分析和图基氏HSD检验，计算并比较不同弹性品牌、时间间隔和能量饮料之间的力衰减百分比。
浸入不同能量饮料中的各种弹性品牌的力降解随时间增加，遵循相似的衰减模式。到第四周结束时，力衰减百分比存在高度显著差异，从68%到83%不等。
考虑到品牌、持续时间和能量饮料的影响，所有评估品牌都表现出相似的力衰减模式，差异高度显著。可口可乐能量饮料和火球饮料中的力衰减相对高于其他饮料。
