Summary of Test Method4.1 This test method consists of subjecting a honeycombconstruction to a uniaxial te
10、nsile force parallel to the plane ofthe honeycomb. The force is transmitted to the honeycombthrough pins, which are placed in cell rows on the top andbottom portions of one specimen.4.2 The only acceptable failure mode for tensile-node bondstrength is the tensile failure of the node-to-node honeycom
11、bbond within the body of the honeycomb specimen. Failure ofthe honeycomb material at the loading pin location is not avalid failure mode.5. Significance and Use5.1 The honeycomb tensile-node bond strength is a funda-mental property than can be used in determining whetherhoneycomb cores can be handle
12、d during cutting, machiningand forming without the nodes breaking. The tensile-nodebond strength is the tensile stress that causes failure of thehoneycomb by rupture of the bond between the nodes. It isusually a peeling-type failure.5.2 This test method provides a standard method of obtain-ing tensi
13、le-node bond strength data for quality control, accep-tance specification testing, and research and development.1This test method is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee D30 onComposite Materials and is the direct responsibility of Subcommittee D30.09 onSandwich Construction.Current edition appr

United States16. Interferences6.1 System AlignmentExcessive bending will cause pre-mature failure. Every e
16、ffort should be made to eliminate excessbending from the test system. Bending may occur as a result ofmisaligned grips, poor specimen preparation, or poor align-ment of the loading fixture.6.2 GeometrySpecific geometric factors that affect thetensile-node bond strength include cell geometry, cell si
17、ze, cellwall thickness and, specimen dimensions (length, width andthickness).6.3 EnvironmentResults are affected by the environmentalconditions under which the tests are conducted. Specimenstested in various environments can exhibit significant differ-ences in both strength behavior and failure mode
18、. Criticalenvironments must be assessed independently.7. Apparatus7.1 Testing MachineThe testing machine shall be in ac-cordance with Practices E4 and shall satisfy the followingrequirements:7.1.1 Testing Machine ConfigurationThe testing machineshall have both an essentially stationary head and a mo

Sampling and Test Specimens8.1 SamplingThe number of test specimens and themethod of their selection depend on the purpose of theparticular test under consideration, and n
23、o general rule can begiven to cover all cases. However, when specimens are to beused for acceptance tests, at least five specimens shall betested, and these specimens shall be selected from that portionof the material which appears to have a maximum of distortedcells or misalignment of bond areas. F

25、The standard thickness of the coreslice shall be 12 6 1 mm 0.500 6 0.04 in. for nonmetalliccores and 16 6 1 mm 0.625 6 0.04 in. for metallic cores.Nonstandard thicknesses are within the scope of this testmethod provided the actual thickness value is reported. Non-standard thickness specimens shall h
26、ave uniform thicknesswithin 61mm60.04 in.NOTE 1The standard thickness values listed above are based onhistorical values for metallic and nonmetallic core thicknesses used forqualification and allowable test programs.8.3 Specimen Preparation and MachiningSpecimensshall be cut such that the number of

29、 SetupC363/C363M 16210. Conditioning10.1 The recommended pre-test condition is effective mois-ture equilibrium at a specific relative humidity as establishedby Test Method D5229/D5229M; however, if the test requestordoes not explicitly specify a pre-test conditioning environment,no conditioning is r
30、equired and the test specimens may betested as prepared.10.2 The pre-test specimen conditioning process, to includespecified environmental exposure levels and resulting moisturecontent, shall be reported with the test data.NOTE 2The term “moisture,” as used in Test Method D5229/D5229M, includes not
31、only the vapor of a liquid and its condensate, butthe liquid itself in large quantities, as for immersion.10.3 If no explicit conditioning process is performed, thespecimen conditioning process shall be reported as “uncondi-tioned” and the moisture content as “unknown.”11. Procedure11.1 Parameters t
32、o be Specified Before Test:11.1.1 The specimen sampling method, specimen geometry,and conditioning travelers (if required).11.1.2 The properties and data reporting format desired.NOTE 3Determine specific material property, accuracy, and datareporting requirements prior to test for proper selection o
33、f instrumentationand data recording equipment. Estimate the specimen strength to aid intransducer selection, calibration of equipment, and determination ofequipment settings.11.1.3 The environmental conditioning test parameters.11.1.4 If performed, sampling method, specimen geometry,and test paramet
34、ers used to determine facing density andreinforcement volume.11.2 General Instructions:11.2.1 Report any deviations from this test method, whetherintentional or inadvertent.11.2.2 Following final specimen machining and anyconditioning, but before testing, measure the specimen lengthand width. The ac
35、curacy of these measurements shall be within0.5 % of the dimension. Measure the specimen thickness; theaccuracy of this measurement shall be within 625 m 60.001in.). Record the dimensions to three significant figures in unitsof millimeters inches.11.2.3 Select pins with the largest diameters that wi
36、ll easilyfit into the honeycomb cells.11.2.4 Place the pins in cell rows in the top and bottomportions of the specimen. Fig. 1 shows a fixture that has beensatisfactorily used to hold and load the pins.11.3 Speed of TestingSet the speed of testing so as toproduce failure within 3 to 6 min. If the ul
37、timate strength of thematerial cannot be reasonably estimated, initial trials should beconducted using standard speeds until the ultimate strength ofthe material and the compliance of the system are known, andspeed of testing can be adjusted. The suggested standard headdisplacement rate is 25 mm/min
38、 1 in./min.11.4 Test EnvironmentIf possible, test the specimen underthe same fluid exposure level used for conditioning. However,cases such as elevated temperature testing of a moist specimenplace unrealistic requirements on the capabilities of commontesting machine environmental chambers. In such c
39、ases, themechanical test environment may need to be modified, forexample, by testing at elevated temperature with no fluidexposure control, but with a specified limit on time to failurefrom withdrawal from the conditioning chamber. Record anymodifications to the test environment.11.5 Specimen Instal
40、lationInstall the specimen/fixture as-sembly into the test machine test fixture.11.6 LoadingApply a tensile force to the specimen at thespecified rate while recording data. Load the specimen until thespecimen is completely torn into two pieces or an unacceptablefailure mode occurs.11.7 Data Recordin
41、gRecord force versus head displace-ment data continuously, or at frequent intervals. For this testmethod, a sampling rate of 3 to 10 data recordings per secondand a target minimum of 300 data points per test are recom-mended. Record the maximum force.11.8 Failure ModesFailure of the honeycomb at the
42、 load-ing pin location is not an acceptable failure mode and the datashall be noted as invalid. Node bond failure is considered to bethe only acceptable failure mode.12. Validation12.1 Values for ultimate properties shall not be calculatedfor any specimen that breaks at some obvious flaw, unless suc
43、hflaw constitutes a variable being studied. Retests shall beperformed for any specimen on which values are not calcu-lated.12.2 Asignificant fraction of failures in a sample populationoccurring at the pin locations shall be cause to reexamine themeans of force introduction into the material. Factors
44、 consid-ered should include the fixture alignment, specimen surfacecharacteristics, and uneven machining of specimen ends.13.
