1、Designation: C674 13Standard Test Methods forFlexural Properties of Ceramic Whiteware Materials1This standard is issued under the fixed designation C674; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision. A
2、number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 These test methods cover determination of the modulusof rupture and the modulus of elasticity of fired ceramicwhitewares bodies, formed
3、 by any fabrication method, and areapplicable to both glazed and unglazed test specimens.1.2 The values stated in inch-pound units are to be regardedas the standard. The metric equivalents of inch-pound unitsmay be approximate.1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns,
4、if any, associated with its use. It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.2. Summary of Test Methods2.1 The specimens, either cylindrical, or rectangular, aresupp
5、orted on knife edges over a suitable span and a direct loadis applied at the midpoint between the supports at a uniformrate until breakage occurs. The modulus of elasticity may bedetermined by halting the applied load at definite intervals andmeasuring the deflection of the specimen at the midpoint

Significance and Use3.1 These test methods provide a means for determining themodulus of rupture and the modulus of elasticity, which maybe required in product specifications.4. Apparatus4.1 Testing MachineAny suitable testing machine may beused, provided unifor

Table 1 listsloading rates that shall be used for each size specimen. Forstrengths of specimens intermediate of those specified, inter-polation ca

When testing rectangular specimens, thesupporting members for the bearing edges shall be constructedto provide a means for alignment of the bearing surfaces withthe surfaces of the test spe

Theapparatus shown in Figs. 1 and 2 are suggested as suitabledevices for ensuring proper spacing and alignment of thebearing edges for rectangular test specimens.5.

(19.2 mm), 0.500 in. (12.7 mm),or 0.250 in. (6.4 mm) in diameter, whichever diameter is mostcomparable to that of th

If the testing must be delayed, store the bars inthe desiccator, or in an electric oven at 110C, and then cool ina desiccator before testing. When removing specimens from ahot kiln, take care to avoid thermal shock

Set any type of deflectome-ter capable of indicating to 0.001 in. (0.0254 mm) to measuredeflection at mid-span relative to
34、the ends of the span. Applythe load uniformly (see either 4.1.1 or 4.1.2) in accordancewith the shape of the specimen. Stop the loading at 15 %increments of the expected total breaking load, as may previ-ously have been determined in the modulus of rupture tests,and record the corresponding deflecti
35、ons.11. Calculation11.1 Plot the load-deflection readings to a convenient scaleand draw a straight (stress-strain) line to represent, as nearly aspossible, the average of the plotted points below the elasticlimit. (In some materials, increasing departures from a straightline may be noted at the high
36、er stress. Such evidence of plasticflow, or of non-recoverable strain, indicates that the elasticlimit has been exceeded.) If the line does not pass through thezero point, draw a corrected line through this point parallel tothe stress-strain line.11.1.1 Calculate the modulus of elasticity, E, for re
37、ctangularspecimens from the coordinates of some convenient point onthe corrected line as follows:E 5 W1L3/4bd3(2)C674 133where:W1= load coordinate of the selected point, lbf (or N);L = length of span, in. (or mm); = deformation coordinate of the selected point, in. (ormm);b = width of specimen at th
38、e center, in. (or mm); andd = thickness of specimen at the center, in. (or mm).11.1.2 Calculate the modulus of elasticity, E, for circularcross-section specimens from the coordinates of some conve-nient point on the corrected line as follows:E 5 4W1L3/3d4(3)where:W1= load coordinate of the selected
39、point, lbf (or N);L = length of span, in. (or mm); = deformation coordinate of the selected point, in. (ormm); andd = diameter of specimen, in. (or mm).12. Report12.1 Report the following information:12.1.1 Identification of the material tested,12.1.2 Stress-strain data and modulus of elasticity for
40、 eachspecimen, and12.1.3 In the case of glazed specimens the position of theglazed surface or surfaces.13. Precision and Bias13.1 Measurements of Modulus of Elasticity are inherentlymore precise than measurements of Modulus of Rupturebecause of unaccounted-for material effects during rupture (seeSec
41、tion 9).14.
