Significance and Use5.1 This test method demonstrates conformity of a dynamicmechanical analyzer at an isothermal temperature of 21 C.5.2 Dynamic mechanical analysis experiments often uselinear temperature change.

Reagents and Materials7.1 A reference material of known loss modulus, formed tothe shape suitable for characterization by the particular dy-namic mechanical analyzer (see Table 1).8. Sampling and Test Specimens8.1 Test specimens are typically prepared in the

17、form of arectangular test bars or film strips.NOTE 1It is common practice to bevel or “break” edges of machinedparts. This practice shall not be followed in the preparation of testspecimens for this method. The measured loss modulus of such specimensreads low due to imperfect sample geometry.9. Cali

Procedure10.1 Prepare the dynamic mechanical analyzer for operationunder the test conditions (for example, specimen clamps, purgegas, etc.) to be used for the characterization of the testspecimen(s). Unless otherwise indicated the

20、temperature con-dition shall be isothermal at 21 +/1C(i.e., between 20 and22 C).10.2 Ensure that the loss modulus signal is less than 1 MPawith no test specimen loaded and at an oscillation testfrequency to be used in this test (see Table 1).NOTE 2Alternatively, a thin specimen of a low modulus mate

21、rial (forexample, a thin piece of paper) may be used. The dimension of the testspecimen shall be used rather than the true dimensions of the thin, lowmodulus material.10.3 Open the apparatus, place the reference material intothe specimen holder, and reassemble the apparatus. Equilibratethe reference

22、 material at the test conditions. Unless otherwiseindicated, the test frequency shall be that indicated in table 1and the temperature shall be isothermal between 20 and 22 C.Ensure that the applied strain (or stress) amplitude is within thelinear viscoelastic region of the sample.10.4 Record the los
