8、 This test method is designed to provide load versusdeformation response of plastics under essentially multiaxialdeformation conditions at impact velocities. This test methodfurther provides a measure of the rate sensitivity of the materialto impact.4.2 Multiaxial impact response, while partly depen
9、dent onthickness, does not necessarily have a linear correlation withspecimen thickness. Therefore, results should be comparedonly for specimens of essentially the same thickness, unlessspecific responses versus thickness formulae have been estab-lished for the material.4.3 For many materials, there
10、 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 test method. Table 1 of Classi-fication System D4000 lis

Apparatus6.1 The
15、testing machine shall consist of two assemblies, onefixed and the other driven by a suitable method to achieve therequired impact velocity (that is, hydraulic, pneumatic, me-chanical, or gravity):6.1.1 Clamp Assembly, consisting of two parallel rigidplates with a 76.0 6 3.0 mm diameter hole in the c
16、enter ofeach. The hole edges shall be rounded to a radius of 0.8 6 0.4mm. Sufficient force must be applied (mechanically, pneumati-cally, or hydraulically) to prevent slippage of the specimen inthe clamp during impact.6.1.2 Plunger Assembly, consisting of a 12.70 6 0.13 mmdiameter steel rod with a h
17、emispherical end of the samediameter positioned perpendicular to, and centered on, theclamp hole.6.1.3 Other Geometries The dimensions given in 6.1.1and 6.1.2 shall be the standard geometry. If other plunger orhole sizes are used they shall be highlighted in the report.Correlations between various g
18、eometries have not been estab-lished.6.1.4 Load Sensing SystemA load cell of sufficiently highnatural resonance frequency, as described in A1.1, used to-gether with a calibrating network for adjusting load sensitivity.6.1.5 Plunger Displacement Measurement SystemAmeans of monitoring the displacement
19、 of the moving assemblyduring the loading and complete penetration of the specimen.This can be accomplished through the use of a suitabletransducer or potentiometer attached directly to the system.Photographic or optical systems can also be utilized formeasuring displacement.6.1.5.1 Alternatively, d
20、isplacement may be calculated as afunction of velocity and total available energy at initial impact,along with increments of load versus time, using a micropro-cessor.6.1.5.2 Some machines use an accelerometer, whose outputis used to calculate both load and displacement.6.1.6 Display and Recording I
21、nstrumentationUse anysuitable means to display and record the data developed fromthe load and displacement-sensing systems, provided its re-sponse characteristics are capable of presenting the datasensed, with minimal distortion. The recording apparatus shallrecord load and displacement simultaneous
22、ly. For furtherinformation, see A1.2.6.1.6.1 The most rudimentary apparatus is a cathode-rayoscilloscope with a camera. This approach also requires aplanimeter or other suitable device, capable of measuring thearea under the recorded load-versus-displacement trace of theevent with an accuracy of 65%
23、.6.1.6.2 More sophisticated systems are commercially avail-able. Most of them include computerized data reduction andautomatic printouts of results.7. Test Specimen7.1 Specimens must be large enough to be adequatelygripped in the clamp. In general, the minimum lateral dimen-sion should be at least 1
24、3 mm greater than the diameter of thehole in the clamp (see 6.1.1 and 10.9).7.2 Specimens may be cut from injection-molded, extruded,or compression molded sheet; or they may be cast or molded tosize.8. Conditioning8.1 Conditioning Condition the test specimens in accor-dance with Procedure A in Pract
25、ice D618 unless otherwisespecified by contract or the relevant ASTM material specifica-tion. Temperature and humidity tolerances shall be in accor-dance with Section 7 of Practice D618, unless otherwisespecified by contract or relevant ASTM material specification.8.2 Test Conditions Conduct tests at
26、 the same temperatureand humidity used for conditioning with tolerances in accor-dance with Section 7 of Practice D618, unless otherwisespecified by contract or relevant ASTM material specification.8.2.1 By changing the conditioning and test temperature ina controlled manner for a given test velocit
27、y, the temperature atwhich transition from ductile to brittle failure occurs can bedetermined for most plastics.NOTE 2To facilitate high throughput during automated testing attemperatures other than ambient, it is often necessary to stack thespecimens in a column with no airflow in between. To assur
28、e compliancewith Section 10 of Practice D618, the time to equilibrium must bedetermined for a given material. A thermocouple may be placed at thecenter of a specimen stack in which its height is equal to its minimumwidth. Determine the time to reach equilibrium at the desired testtemperature. Experi
29、ments with materials having low thermal conductivityvalues have shown that more than 7.5 h of soak time was required beforethe stack center temperature fell within the tolerances specified in D618 ata setpoint of -40C. Two and a half additional hours were needed to reachequilibrium. The opposite ext
30、reme was seen in a material of higherthermal conductivity that only required2htoreach equilibrium at -40C.9. Speed of Testing9.1 For recommended testing speeds see 10.4.10. Procedure10.1 Test a minimum of five specimens at each specifiedspeed.10.2 Measure and record the thickness of each specimen to
31、the nearest 0.025 mm at the center of the specimen. In the caseof injection molded specimens it is not necessary to measureeach specimen. It is sufficient to measure and record thicknessfor one specimen when it has been previously demonstratedthat the thickness does not vary by more than 5 %.10.3 Cl
32、amp the specimen between the plates of the speci-men holder, taking care to center the specimen for uniformgripping. Tighten the clamping plate in such a way as toprovide uniform clamping pressure to prevent slippage duringtesting.10.4 Set the test speed to the desired value. The testingspeed (movab
33、le-member velocity at the instant before contactwith the specimen) shall be as follows:10.4.1 For single-speed tests, use a velocity of 200 m/min.10.4.1.1 Other speeds may be used, provided they areclearly stated in the report.10.4.2 To measure the dependence of puncture properties onimpact velocity
34、, use a broad range of test speeds. Somesuggested speeds are 2.5, 25, 125, 200, and 250 m/min.D3763 101210.5 Set the available energy so that the velocity slowdownis no more than 20 % from the beginning of the test to the pointof peak load. If the velocity should decrease by more than20 %, discard t
35、he results and make additional tests on newspecimens with more available energy.NOTE 3It is observed that when the available energy is at least threetimes the absorbed energy at the peak load velocity slow-down is less than20 %.10.6 Place a safety shield around the specimen holder.10.7 Make the nece
36、ssary adjustments to data collectionapparatus as required by the manufacturers instructions orconsult literature such as STP 9364for further informationregarding setting up data acquisition systems.10.8 Conduct the test, following the manufacturers instruc-tions for the specific equipment used.10.9
37、Remove the specimen and inspect the gripped portionfor striations or other evidence of slippage. If there is evidenceof slippage, modify the clamping conditions or increase thespecimen size and repeat test procedures.11. Calculation11.1 Using the load-versus-displacement trace and appro-priate scali
38、ng factors, calculate the following:11.1.1 Peak load, in newtons.11.1.2 Deflection, in millimetres, to the point where peakload first occurred.11.1.3 From the area within the trace, calculate:11.1.3.1 Energy, in joules, to the point where load firstoccurred.11.1.3.2 Total energy absorbed. The point
39、for determiningthis has not been standardized. Therefore, the point used foreach test must be stated in the report.11.1.4 Load, deflection, energy, or combination thereof, atany other specific point of interest (see Appendix X1).11.2 For each series of tests, calculate the arithmetic meanfor each of
40、 the above, to three significant figures.11.3 Calculate the estimated standard deviations as follows:S 5 SSX22 n X2n 2 1D1/2(1)where:S = estimated standard deviation,X = value of a single determination,n = number of determinations, andX = arithmetic mean of the set of determinations.12.

43、 or not any slippage of the specimens wasdetected, and12.1.10 If the effect of testing speeds was studied (see10.4.2).13. Precision and Bias513.1 Tables 1-3 are based on a round robin conducted in1996 in accordance with Practice E691, involving 7 materialstested by 11 laboratories. For each material
44、, all of the speci-mens were prepared at the laboratory of the company volun-teering that material for the round robin. Ten specimens fromeach material were sent to each participating laboratory. Eachtest result was the average of 5 individual determinations. Eachlaboratory obtained 2 test results f
45、or each material.(WarningThe explanations of r and R (13.2-13.2.3) are onlyintended to present a meaningful way of considering theapproximate precision of this test method. The data in Tables1-3 should not be applied to acceptance or rejection ofmaterials, as these data only apply to the materials t
46、ested in theround robin and are unlikely to be rigorously representative ofother lots, conditions, materials, or laboratories. Users of thistest method should apply the principles outlined in PracticeE691 to generate data specific to their materials and laboratory(or between specific laboratories).
47、The principles of 13.2-13.2.3 would then be valid for such data.)4Instrumented Impact Testing of Plastics and Composite Materials, ASTM STP936, ASTM, 1986.5Supporting data have been filed at ASTM International Headquarters and maybe obtained by requesting Research Report RR:D20-1234.TABLE 1 Maximum
