Lase laz. An acronym for load at specified elongation the load required to produce a given elongation of a yarn or cord. 

The cross-linking of materials such as polyethylene, ethylene propylene rubber and some other rubbers used for cable insulation and sheathing is conventionally measured for quality purposes by means of a test of elongation imder a specified load at elevated temperature of the permanent set measured when the load is removed and the sample allowed to cool. This hot-set test is very good when it is possible to cut appropriately sized tensile test dumb-bells for the measurement. Where samples are irregular and small, as may be the case in work of a more investigative nature, it is much more difficult to apply, and TMA has been applied, albeit in a fairly qualitative way, to the problem of finding out if a specimen is cross-linked. 

Flexural modulus is a measure of the strength of adhesives. Modulus data are most often used in stress analysis (one-dimensional or as an input to 3D-modeling). In addition to flexural modulus, elongation-at-break is also recorded. The standard test method is ASTM D790, Flexural Properties of Unreinforced and Reinforced Plastics and Electrical Insulating Materials. Two methods are specified. The first uses a three-point bending test two supports hold the part and a load is applied with a single point to induce...
