Scope*1.1 This test method covers the determination of the appar-ent bending modulus2of plastics by means of a cantileverbeam.

3、It is well suited for determining relative flexibility ofmaterials over a wide range. It is particularly useful formaterials too flexible to be tested by Test Methods D 790.1.2 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as thestandard. The values given in parentheses are for informationonly.1.

4、3 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, 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.NOTE 1There is no

8、d plastic components.4. Significance and Use4.1 This test method provides a means of deriving theapparent bending modulus of a material by measuring forceand angle of bend of a cantilever beam. The mathematicalderivation assumes small deflections and purely elastic behav-ior. Under actual test condi

9、tions, the deformation has bothelastic and plastic components. This test method does notdistinguish or separate these, and hence a true elastic modulusis not calculable. Instead, an apparent value is obtained and isdefined as the apparent bending modulus of the material. Thetangent modulus obtained

10、by Test Methods D 790 is preferred,when the material can be tested by the Test Methods D 790 testprocedure.4.2 Because of deviations from purely elastic behavior,changes in span length, width, and depth of the specimen willaffect the value of the apparent bending modulus obtained;therefore, values o

11、btained from specimens of different dimen-sions may not necessarily be comparable.4.3 Rate of loading is controlled only to the extent that therate of angular change of the rotating jaw is fixed at 58 to66/min. Actual rate of stressing will be affected by spanlength, width, depth of the specimen, an

12、d weight of thependulum.4.4 For many materials, there may be a specification thatrequires the use of this test method, but with some proceduralmodifications that take precedence when adhering to thespecification. Therefore, it is advisable to refer to that materialspecification before using this tes

Apparatus5.1 The apparatus for the apparent bending modulus test, asshown in Fig. 1, shall be the cantilever beam bending type,co

17、nsisting essentially of the following:5.1.1 ViseA specimen vise, V, to which the pointerindicator I2is attached, and which is capable of uniformclockwise rotation about the point O at a nominal rate of 60 ofarc/min.5.1.2 Weighing SystemA pendulum weighing system, in-cluding an angular deflection sca

18、le, pointer indicator I1, bend-ing plate Q for contacting the free end of the specimen, and aseries of detachable weights. This system shall be pivoted fornearly frictionless rotation about the point O. The total appliedbending moment, MW, consists of the effective moment of thependulum and the bend

19、ing plate, A1, plus the moments of theadded calibrated weights, A2. Thus,MW5 WL sin u (1)where:Mw= actual bending moment at the angle u,W = total applied load, N (or lbf),L = length of the pendulum arm, m (or in.), andu = angle through which the pendulum rotates.NOTE 3Auxiliary weights for the test

20、apparatus7are calibrated andmarked directly with the values for M, the bending moment at a loadreading of 100. Since Mwdepends on the geometry of the testing machine,these weights are not interchangeable between machines of differentcapacities.5.1.3 Load ScaleA fixed scale that measures the load as

21、afunction of the deflection, u, of the load pendulum system. Itshall be calibrated such that:Load scale reading 5 100 WL sin u/ M (2)where:M = bending moment at a load scale reading of 100.Thus,Mw5 M 3 load scale reading!/100 (3)where:Mw= actual bending moment.5.1.4 Angular Deflection ScaleThe angul

22、ar deflectionscale shall be calibrated in degrees of arc and shall indicate theangle through which the rotating vise has been turned relativeto the pendulum system. This is the difference between theangle through which the vise has been turned and the anglethrough which the load pendulum has been de

23、flected, and isdesignated as angle f.5.1.5 Depth Measuring DevicesSuitable micrometers, orthickness gages, reading to 0.0025 mm (0.0001 in.) or less,shall be used for measuring the depth of the test specimens.The pressure exerted by the gage on the specimen beingmeasured shall be between 159 and 186

24、 kPa (23 and 27 psi).Method A of Test Methods D 374 may be used. Alternatively,the apparatus and procedure of Method C of Test MethodsD 374 may be used provided the load on the spindle isincreased so that the exerted pressure is between 159 and 186kPa (23 and 27 psi).5.1.6 Width-Measuring DevicesSui

25、table scales or otherwidth measuring devices reading to 0.025 mm (0.001 in.) orless shall be used for measuring the width of the test specimen.6. Test Specimens6.1 Test specimens may be molded or cut from molded,calendered, or cast sheets of the material to be tested. Theyshall have a rectangular cr

26、oss section and shall be cut with theirlongitudinal axes parallel to the direction of the principal axisof anisotropy, unless anisotropy effects are specifically to beevaluated. The width and depth of the specimen to be tested, aswell as the span length, will depend upon the apparent bendingmodulus

27、of the material and the capacity of the testingmachine. Specimens shall have an even surface. If they exhibita surface tackiness, they shall be dusted lightly with talc beforebeing tested.6.2 Specimen width shall be between 5.0 and 25.4 mm (0.25and 1.00 in.), provided the material does not extend ov

28、er thewidth of the anvil. Width shall be measured to the nearest 0.025mm (0.001 in.).6.3 The minimum specimen depth shall be 0.5 mm (0.020in.) and shall be measured to the nearest 0.0025 cm (0.0001in.).NOTE 4A minimum specimen depth requirement is included since alarge percentage error can result in

29、 the final apparent bending modulusvalue because of small errors in the depth measurement. The reason forthis large dependence of apparent bending modulus on depth errors is7This apparatus can be obtained from Tinius Olsen Testing Machine Co., Inc.,Easton Road, Willow Grove, PA 19090.FIG. 1 Mechanic

30、al System of Test ApparatusD747022because the depth is to the third power in the formula.6.4 The span-to-depth ratio shall be greater than 15 to 1.Large span-to-depth ratios may be limited by the sensitivity ofthe load-measuring and deflectometer equipment.6.5 The number of specimens tested shall be

31、 at least five.7. Conditioning7.1 ConditioningCondition the test specimens at 23 62C (73.4 6 3.6F) and 50 6 5 % relative humidity for not lessthan 40 h prior to test in accordance with Procedure A ofPractice D 618 unless otherwise specified by contract or therelevant ASTM material specification. Ref

32、erence pre-test con-ditioning, to settle disagreements, shall apply tolerances of61C (1.8F) and 62 % relative humidity.7.2 Test ConditionsConduct the tests at 23 6 2C (73.4 63.6F) and 50 6 5 % relative humidity unless otherwisespecified by contract or the relevant ASTM material specifica-tion. Refer

33、ence testing conditions, to settle disagreements,shall apply tolerances of 61C (1.8F) and 62 % relativehumidity.7.3 Specimens to be tested at temperatures above or belownormal shall be conditioned at the test temperature at least 2 hprior to testing, unless shorter equilibration time has beenproven.

34、 The test apparatus itself should be conditioned 2 hbefore testing.7.4 Lubrication of Test Apparatus For operations at tem-peratures below 0C (32F) it may be necessary to remove allthe lubricant from the gear box, bearings, etc., of the apparatusand replace it with kerosine or silicone oil.8. Proced

35、ure8.1 Place the test apparatus on an approximately levelsurface. Add necessary weights to the pendulum and, ifnecessary, adjust the load scale to indicate zero. Set thebending pin or plate to the proper bending span as determinedin 6.4. Start the motor and keep it running throughout the teststo min

36、imize friction effects in the weighing system.8.2 For maximum precision choose the value of M so that,at an angle of 3, the load scale reading is between 5 and 10.If this value is not known, determine it by trial and error usingthe standard procedure. After obtaining M, test five specimens.8.3 Firml

Record this point and plot it as part of the data.8.4 Hold d

Precision and Bias811.1 Table 2 is based on a round-robin test conducted in1981, in

44、accordance with Practice E 691, involving fourmaterials tested by seven laboratories. Each “test result” wasthe average of five individual determinations. Each laboratoryobtained two test results for each material.NOTE 5Caution: The following explanations of r and R (11.2-11.2.3)are intended only to

45、 present a meaningful way of considering theapproximate precision of this test method. The data given in Table 2should not be applied rigorously to the acceptance or rejection ofmaterials, as those data are specific to the round robin and may not berepresentative of other lots, conditions, materials

46、, or laboratories. Users ofthis test method should apply the principles outlined in Practice E 691 togenerate data specific to their laboratory and materials, or between specificlaboratories. The principles of 11.2-11.2.3 would then be valid for suchdata.11.2 Concept of r and R in Table 1If Srand SR

47、have beencalculated from a large enough body of data, and for test resultsthat were averages from testing five specimens for each testresult, then:11.2.1 RepeatabilityTwo test results obtained within onelaboratory shall be judged not equivalent if they differ by morethan the r value for that materia

48、l. The r value is the intervalrepresenting the critical difference between two test results forthe same material, obtained by the same operator using thesame equipment on the same day in the same laboratory.11.2.2 ReproducibilityTwo test results obtained by differ-ent laboratories shall be judged no

49、t equivalent if they differ bymore than the R value for that material. The R value is theinterval representing the critical difference between two testresults for the same material, obtained by different operatorsusing different equipment in different laboratories.11.2.3 The judgments in 11.2.1 and 11.2.2 will have anapproximately 95 % (0.95) probability of being correct.11.3 BiasNo statement may be made about the bias of thistest method, as there is no standard reference material orreference test method that is applicable.12.
