Standard Test Methods for Tensile Properties of Plastics

ASTM D 638, Standard Test Methods for Tensile Properties of Plastics [Pg.320]

The ASTM procedure describes procedures for determining tensile properties of materials in the form of standard dumbbell-shaped test specimens, with thickness between 1.0 mm (0.04 in.) and 14 mm (0.55 in.). The ASTM emphasizes, where directly comparable results are desired, that all samples should be of equal thickness. [Pg.320]

For isotropic materials, at least five specimens for each sample are reqnired to be tested. For anisotropic materials, 10 specimens should be tested, five normal to and five parallel with the principle axis of anisotropy, for each sample. [Pg.321]

Speed of testing shall be from 1 mm (0.05 in.)/min to 500 mm (20 in.)/min, depending on specimen type and degree of rigidity of the material, so that rupture occurs within 30 s to 5 min of testing time. [Pg.321]

Calculations of tensile strength and tensile modulus of elasticity are described in the text above. [Pg.321]

ASTM D638 Standard Test Method for Tensile Properties of Plastics is used to determine the tensile properties of unreinforced and reinforced plastics under defined conditions of pretreatment, temperature, humidity, and testing machine speed. Specimens are dumbbell-shaped and can be of any thickness up to 14 mm. However, test Method D8 82 is the preferred test method for testing films... [Pg.185]

Tensile testing Tensile testing was carried out according to the ASTM 638-03 Standard Test Method for Tensile Properties of Plastics). Test specimens should be placed in a conditioning chamber at 23 1 °C and 50 % relative humidity for at least 24 h. At least six specimens are tested for each sample. [Pg.311]
