Significance and Use5.1 This test method provides a simple means of characterizing the thermomechanical behavior of plastic compositions usinga very small amount of material. Since small test specimen geometries are used, it is essential that the specimens be re
18、presentativeof the material being tested. The data obtained can be used for quality control and/or research and development purposes. For someclasses of materials, such as thermosets, it can also be used to establish optimum processing conditions.5.2 Dynamic mechanical testing provides a sensitive m

Plots of moduli and tan delta of a material versus thesevariables can be used to provide a graphic representation indicative of functional properties, effec

23、ore proceeding with this test method, refer to the specification of the material being tested. Any test specimenpreparation, conditioning, dimensions, or testing parameters, or combination thereof, covered in the relevant ASTM materialspecification shall take precedence over those mentioned in this
24、test method. If there are no relevantASTM material specifications,then the default conditions apply.6. Apparatus6.1 The function of the apparatus is to hold a rectangular cross-sectional bar so that the material acts as the elastic anddissipative element in a mechanically driven linear displacement
25、system. Dynamic mechanical instruments described in thisstandard generally operate in a forced, constant amplitude mode at either a fixed frequency or variable frequencies.6.2 The apparatus consists of the following:6.2.1 Fixed GripsA fixed or essentially stationary fixture consisting of two grips t
26、o secure the rectangular specimenhorizontally in a dual cantilever configuration.6.2.2 Movable GripA movable grip applying the linear displacement at the center of the rectangular beam.6.2.3 Grip AlignmentsThe grips shall be mechanically aligned or centered, that is, they shall be attached in such a
27、 manner thatthey will move into alignment as soon as any load is applied.6.2.3.1 The test specimen shall be held in such a way that slippage relative to the grips is minimized as much as possible.6.2.4 Deformation (Strain) DeviceA device for applying a continuous linear deformation (strain) to the s
28、pecimen. In theforce-displacement device the deformation (strain) is applied and then released (see Table 1 of Practice D4065).6.2.5 DetectorsA device or devices for determining dependent and independent experimental parameters, such as force(stress), deformation (strain), frequency, and temperature
29、. Temperature should be measurable with a precision of 61C, frequency,strain, and force to 61 %.6.2.6 Temperature Controller and OvenAdevice for controlling the temperature, either by heating (in steps or ramps), cooling(in steps or ramps), or maintaining a constant specimen environment, or a combin
30、ation thereof. A temperature controller shouldbe sufficiently stable to permit measurement of environmental chamber temperature to within 1C.6.3 Nitrogen, or other inert-gas supply for purging purposes if appropriate.7. Test Specimens7.1 The specimens may be cut from sheets, plates, or molded shapes
31、 or may be molded to the desired finished dimensions.Anyrectangular specimen (representative of the material being tested and within the fixturing capabilities of the test equipment) ispermitted as long as it is clearly stated in the test report.3 The particular method for measurement of the elastic
32、 and loss moduli and tan delta depends upon the individual instruments operating principles.D5418 1527.

34、.0C and 50 6 5 %10 % relative humidity for not fewer than 40h prior to test in accordance with Procedure A of Practice D618 unless otherwise specified by contract or relevant ASTM materialspecification.10. Procedure10.1 Use an untested specimen for each measurement. Measure the width and thickness o
35、f the specimen to the nearest 0.03 mm(0.001 in.) at the center of the specimen.10.2 Clamp the test specimen between the movable and stationary members; use shim stock, if necessary, to minimize slippagewithin the clamp.10.3 Pre-load the test specimen so that there is a positive force. The positive p
36、re-load should be sufficient to maintain a positivedeflection during testing unless the test mode allows a zero-displacement measurement.10.4 Measure the length of the specimen between the stationary end grips to the nearest 0.03 mm (0.001 in.).10.5 Select the desired frequency (or frequencies) for
37、dynamic linear displacement.10.6 Select the linear displacement amplitude within the linear elastic region of the material being tested. If the linear elasticregion is not known, perform a strain sweep at ambient temperature to determine an appropriate amplitude.10.7 Temperature Sweep:10.7.1 Tempera
38、ture variations shall be controlled to 1 to 2C/min for linear increases or to 2 to 5C/min with a minimum of1-min thermal-soak time for step increases.10.8 The tan delta peak will coincide with a significant decrease in the E (elastic or storage) modulus, with increasingtemperature, through the glass
