Tensile Strength ASTM

Finally, the test conditions themselves can influence the measured tensile strength of a specimen. For this reason, it is crucial to closely follow standardized test methods. Room temperature and strain rate used during a test will affect the data. Also, any defects in the test specimen or nicks produced during specimen cutting will lead to erroneous results.

Another popular test for wax is the tensile strength (ASTM D-1320), which is considered to be a useful guide in controlling the quality of the wax, although the actual signihcance of the results obtained is not clear.

Testing of mechanical properties such as tensile strength (ASTM-D-638), flexural strength (ASTM-D-790), and impact strength (ASTM-D-256) was done following standard methods. The water absorption of both untreated and treated composites was determined as per ASTM-D-570. The variation in tensile, impact, and flexural properties of thermoplastic composites, viz. sisal-polypropylene and sisal polystyrene, is explained here, and the change in fiber volume also given here.
