Significance and Use4.1 This test method is designed to provide load versus deformation response of plastics under essentially multi-axialdeformation conditions at impact velocities. This test
8、 method further provides a measure of the rate sensitivity of the material toimpact.4.2 Multi-axial impact response, while partly dependent on thickness, does not necessarily have a linear correlation withspecimen thickness. Therefore, results should be compared only for specimens of essentially the
9、 same thickness, unless specificresponses versus thickness formulae have been established for the material.4.3 For many materials, there may be a specification that requires the use of this test method, but with some proceduralmodifications that take precedence when adhering to the specification. Th
10、erefore, it is advisable to refer to that materialspecification before using this test method. Table 1 of Classification System D4000 lists the ASTM materials standards thatcurrently exist.1 This test method is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee D20 on Plastics and is the direct responsibility

Interferences5.1 Inertial EffectsA loading function encountered when performing an instrumented impact test that may, in some cases,confuse the interpretation of the test data. For further definition and examples of inertial effects, refer
16、 to Appendix X1.6. Apparatus6.1 The testing machine shall consist of two assemblies, one fixed and the other driven by a suitable method to achieve therequired impact velocity (that is, hydraulic, pneumatic, mechanical, or gravity):6.1.1 Clamp Assembly, consisting of two parallel rigid plates with a
17、 76.0 6 3.0 mm diameter hole in the center of each. Thehole edges shall be rounded to a radius of 0.8 6 0.4 mm. Sufficient force must be applied (mechanically, pneumatically, orhydraulically) to prevent slippage of the specimen in the clamp during impact.6.1.2 Plunger Assembly, consisting of a 12.70
18、 6 0.13 mm diameter steel rod with a hemispherical end of the same diameterpositioned perpendicular to, and centered on, the clamp hole.6.1.3 Other GeometriesThe dimensions given in 6.1.1 and 6.1.2 shall be the standard geometry. If other plunger or hole sizesare used they shall be highlighted in th
19、e report. Correlations between various geometries have not been established.6.1.4 Load Sensing SystemA load cell of sufficiently high natural resonance frequency, as described in A1.1, used togetherwith a calibrating network for adjusting load sensitivity.6.1.5 Plunger Displacement Measurement Syste
20、mAmeans of monitoring the displacement of the moving assembly during theloading and complete penetration of the specimen. This can be accomplished through the use of a suitable transducer orpotentiometer attached directly to the system. Photographic or optical systems can also be utilized for measur
21、ing displacement.6.1.5.1 Alternatively, displacement may be calculated as a function of velocity and total available energy at initial impact, alongwith increments of load versus time, using a microprocessor.6.1.5.2 Some machines use an accelerometer, whose output is used to calculate both load and
22、displacement.6.1.6 Display and Recording InstrumentationUse any suitable means to display and record the data developed from the loadand displacement-sensing systems, provided its response characteristics are capable of presenting the data sensed, with minimaldistortion. The recording apparatus shal
23、l record load and displacement simultaneously. For further information, see A1.2.6.1.6.1 The most rudimentary apparatus is a cathode-ray oscilloscope with a camera. This approach also requires a planimeteror other suitable device, capable of measuring the area under the recorded load-versus-displace
24、ment trace of the event with anaccuracy of 65 %.6.1.6.2 More sophisticated systems are commercially available. Most of them include computerized data reduction andautomatic printouts of results.7. Test Specimen7.1 Specimens must be large enough to be adequately gripped in the clamp. In general, the
25、minimum lateral dimension shouldbe at least 13 mm greater than the diameter of the hole 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 ConditioningCondition the test spec
26、imens in accordance with ProcedureAin Practice D618 unless otherwise specified bycontract or the relevant ASTM material specification. Temperature and humidity tolerances shall be in accordance with Section 7of Practice D618, unless otherwise specified by contract or relevant ASTM material specifica
27、tion.8.2 Test ConditionsConduct tests at the same temperature and humidity used for conditioning with tolerances in accordancewith Section 7 of Practice D618, unless otherwise specified by contract or relevant ASTM material specification.8.2.1 By changing the conditioning and test temperature in a c
28、ontrolled manner for a given test velocity, the temperature atwhich transition from ductile to brittle failure occurs can be determined for most plastics.NOTE 2To facilitate high throughput during automated testing at temperatures other than ambient, it is often necessary to stack the specimens in a
29、column with no airflow in between. To assure compliance with Section 10 of Practice D618, the time to equilibrium must be determined for a givenmaterial. A thermocouple may be placed at the center of a specimen stack in which its height is equal to its minimum width. Determine the time to reachequil
30、ibrium at the desired test temperature. Experiments with materials having low thermal conductivity values have shown that more than 7.5 h of soaktime was required before the stack center temperature fell within the tolerances specified in D618 at a setpoint of -40C. Two and a half additional hourswe
31、re needed to reach equilibrium. The opposite extreme was seen in a material of higher thermal conductivity that only required 2 h to reach equilibriumat -40C.NOTE 3The impact behavior of some materials (for example, polypropylene, polyethylene), at sub-ambient temperatures, can be affected by the de
32、layor “transit” time4 after the specimen is removed from a remote environmental conditioning/freezer chamber. The transit time is defined as the total timefrom the removal of the specimen from the conditioning environment until the specimen is impacted.4 Transit Time: Reference from ISO document 660
33、3-1-clause 7.1.2 and 7.1.3.D3763 1529. Speed of Testing9.1 For recommended testing speeds see 10.4.10. Procedure10.1 Test a minimum of five specimens at each specified speed.10.2 Measure and record the thickness of each specimen to the nearest 0.025 mm at the center of the specimen. In the case ofin
34、jection molded specimens, it is sufficient to measure and record thickness for one specimen when it has been previouslydemonstrated that the thickness does not vary by more than 5 %.10.3 Clamp the specimen between the plates of the specimen holder, taking care to center the specimen for uniform grip
35、ping.Tighten the clamping plate in such a way as to provide uniform clamping pressure to prevent slippage during testing.10.4 Set the test speed to the desired value. The testing speed (movable-member velocity at the instant before contact with thespecimen) shall be as follows:10.4.1 For single-spee
36、d tests, use a velocity of 200 m/min.10.4.1.1 Other speeds may be used, provided they are clearly stated in the report.10.4.2 To measure the dependence of puncture properties on impact velocity, use a broad range of test speeds. Some suggestedspeeds are 2.5, 25, 125, 200, and 250 m/min.10.5 Set the
37、available energy so that the velocity slowdown is no more than 20 % from the beginning of the test to the pointof peak load. If the velocity should decrease by more than 20 %, discard the results and make additional tests on new specimenswith more available energy.NOTE 4It is observed that when the
38、available energy is at least three times the absorbed energy at the peak load velocity slow-down is less than 20 %.10.6 Place a safety shield around the specimen holder.10.7 Make the necessary adjustments to data collection apparatus as required by the manufacturers instructions or consultliterature
39、 such as STP 9365 for further information regarding setting up data acquisition systems.10.8 Conduct the test, following the manufacturers instructions for the specific equipment used.10.9 Remove the specimen and inspect the gripped portion for striations or other evidence of slippage. If there is e
40、vidence ofslippage, modify the clamping conditions or increase the specimen size and repeat test procedures.11. Calculation11.1 Using the load-versus-displacement trace and appropriate scaling factors, calculate the following:11.1.1 Peak load, in newtons.11.1.2 Deflection, in millimetres, to the poi
41、nt where peak load first occurred.11.1.3 From the area within the trace, calculate:11.1.3.1 Energy, in joules, to the point where load first occurred.11.1.3.2 Puncture energy absorbed. Calculated at a corresponding point equal to a 50 % drop from the maximum load.Therefore, the point used for each t
42、est must be stated in the report.11.1.4 Load, deflection, energy, or combination thereof, at any other specific point of interest (see Appendix X1).11.2 For each series of tests, calculate the arithmetic mean for each of the above, to three significant figures.11.3 Calculate the estimated standard d
43、eviations as follows:S 5SX22nX2n 21 D1/2(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.

Precision and Bias613.1 Tables 1-3 are based on a round robin conducted in 1996 in accordance with Practice E691, involving 7 materials testedby 11 labor
47、atories. For each material, all of the specimens were prepared at the laboratory of the company volunteering thatmaterial for the round robin. Ten specimens from each material were sent to each participating laboratory. Each test result was theaverage of 5 individual determinations. Each laboratory
48、obtained 2 test results for each material. (WarningThe explanations ofr and R (13.2 13.2.3) are only intended to present a meaningful way of considering the approximate precision of this test method.The data in Tables 1-3 should not be applied to acceptance or rejection of materials, as these data o
49、nly apply to the materials testedin the round robin and are unlikely to be rigorously representative of other lots, conditions, materials, or laboratories. Users of thistest method should apply the principles outlined in Practice E691 to generate data specific to their materials and laboratory (orbetween specific laboratories). The principles of 13.2 13.2.3 would then be valid for such data.)13.2 Concept of r and R in Tables 1-3If Sr and SR have been calculated from a large enough body of data, and for test resultsthat were averages from testing 5
