Summary of Test Method4.1 This test method covers the determination of the viscoelastic properties of a plastic material using dynam
17、ic mechanicaltechniques in tension. A test specimen of rectangular cross section is tested in dynamic tension. The specimen is grippedlongitudinally between two clamps. The specimen is placed in mechanical linear tensile displacement at fixed frequencies and ateither isothermal conditions or with a
18、linear temperature variation.with a linear temperature variation or variable frequencies atisothermal conditions. The elastic moduli or loss moduli, or both, of the polymeric material system are measured in tension.NOTE 2The particular method for measurement of the elastic and loss moduli and tan de
19、lta depends upon the individual instruments operatingprinciples.5. Significance and Use5.1 This test method provides a simple means of characterizing the thermomechanical behavior of plastic materials using verysmall amounts of material. The data obtained may be used for quality control, research an
20、d development, as well as theestablishment of optimum processing conditions.5.2 Dynamic mechanical testing provides a sensitive method for determining thermomechanical characteristics by measuringthe elastic and loss moduli as a function of frequency, temperature, or time. Plots of moduli and tan de
21、lta of a material versus thesevariables can be used to provide graphical representation indicative of functional properties, effectiveness of cure (thermosettingresin system), and damping behavior under specified conditions.5.3 This test method can be used to assess:5.3.1 Modulus as a function of te

24、on temperature.5.4 Before proceeding with this test method, reference should be made to the specification of the material being tested.Any testspecimen preparation, conditioning, dimensions, or testing parameters, or combination thereof, covered in the relevant ASTMmaterials specification shall take
25、 precedence over those mentioned in this test method. If there are no relevant ASTM materialspecifications, then the default conditions apply.6. Interferences6.1 Since small test specimen geometries are used, it is essential that the specimens be representative of the polymeric materialbeing tested.
26、7. Apparatus7.1 The function of the apparatus is to hold a rectangular test specimen of a polymeric material system so that the material actsas the elastic and dissipative element in a mechanically driven linear displacement system. Dynamic mechanical instrumentsdescribed in this test method general
27、ly operate in a forced, constant amplitude, at a fixed frequency.7.2 The apparatus shall consist of the following:7.2.1 Fixed MemberA fixed or essentially stationary member carrying one grip.7.2.2 Movable MemberA movable member carrying a second grip.7.2.3 GripsGrips for holding the test specimen be
28、tween the fixed member and the movable member. The grips shall bemechanically aligned, that is, they shall be attached to the fixed and movable member, respectively, in such a manner that they willmove freely into alignment as soon as any load is applied, so that the long axis of the test specimen w
29、ill coincide with the directionof the applied pull through the center line of the grip assembly.7.2.3.1 The test specimen shall be held in such a way that slippage relative to the grips is prevented as much as possible.7.2.4 Linear Deformation (Strain) DeviceA device for applying a continuous linear
30、 deformation (strain) to the specimen. Inthe force-displacement device the deformation (strain) is applied and then released (see Table 1 of Practice D4065).7.2.5 DetectorsA device or devices for determining dependent and independent experimental parameters, such as force(stress), deformation (strai
31、n), frequency, and temperature. Temperature should be measurable with a precision of 61C, frequencyto 61 %, strain to 61 %, and force to 61 %.D5026 1527.2.6 Temperature Controller and OvenAdevice for controlling the temperature, either by heating (in steps or ramps), cooling(in steps or ramps) or ma

Measure the width and thickness of the specimen to the nearest 0.03 mm(0.001 in.) at the center of the specimen.11.2 Clamp the test specimen between the movable
36、 and stationary members; use shim stock, if necessary, to minimize slippagewithin the clamp.11.3 Pre-load the test specimen so that there is a positive force. Monitor the normal force to ensure adequate pre-loading.11.4 Measure to the nearest 0.03 mm (0.001 in.) the jaw separation between the movabl
37、e and stationary members.11.5 Select the desired frequency (or frequencies) for dynamic linear displacement.11.6 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 tempera
38、ture to determine an appropriate amplitude.11.7 Temperature Sweep:11.7.1 Temperature increases should be controlled to 1 to 2C for linear increases and 2 to 5C/min with a minimum of 1-minthermal-soak time for step increases.11.7.2 The tan delta peak shall coincide with the dramatic change in modulus
39、 through the glass transition region.12.
