1、Designation: D 7192 05Standard Test Method forHigh Speed Puncture Properties of Plastic Films Using Loadand Displacement Sensors1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D 7192; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revi
2、sion, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon (e) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This test method covers the determination of punctureproperties of plastic films, over a range of t
3、est velocities.1.2 Test data obtained by this test method is relevant andappropriate for use in engineering design.1.3 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded asstandard.1.4 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is therespon
4、sibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.NOTE 1This test method does not closely conform to ISO 7765-2.The only similarity between the two tests is that they are both instru-men
5、ted impact tests. The differences in striker, fixture, specimen geom-etries and in test velocity can produce significantly different test results.2.

7、e and Use4.1 This test method is designed to provide load versusdeformation response of plastic films under essentially multi-axial deformation conditions at impact velocities. This testmethod further provides a measure of the rate sensitivity of theplastic films to impact.4.2 Multi-axial impact res
8、ponse, while partly dependent 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 plastic films
9、 being tested.4.3 For many plastic films, there 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 meth
10、od. Table 1 of Classi-fication System D 4000 lists theASTM materials standards thatcurrently exist.4.4 The values obtained by this test method are highlydependent on the method and conditions of film fabrication aswell as the type and grade of resin. Results can vary signifi-cantly, depending upon s
11、ample quality, uniformity of filmgage, die marks, contaminants, and so forth.5. Apparatus5.1 The 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):5.1.1 S

The holding technique employed on the specimenmust not interfere with the radius edge of the clamp assembly.Specimens should be held taut but not stretched so as to causedamage to the specimen prior to test.NOTE 2The following techniques have been
14、 successfully employedfor different types of plastic films: Parallel rigid plates clamped together with sufficient force (mechani-cally, pneumatically or hydraulically) to prevent slippage of the specimenin the clamp during impact.1This test method is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee D20 on

MINIMUM INSTRUMENTATION REQUIREMENTSA1.1 Force MeasurementAny transducer that meets theperformance requirements for dynamic force measurementshall be permitted to be used. This includes, but is not limitedto, strain gage force transducers, piezo-electric force transduc
46、-ers and accelerometers.A1.1.1 Performance RequirementsThe natural frequency(fdev) of the transducer plus striker shall be sufficient to avoiddistortion of the force-time or acceleration-time data. The timefailure (tf), in seconds, of a given test specimen regulates theminimum natural frequency for
47、a transducer/striker assemblyby the following relationship:tf5 3/fdev(A1.1)Since time to failure is generally greater than 0.5 ms forplastics, a transducer assembly with a natural frequency greaterthan 6 kHz is recommended (0.0005 $ 3/6000). In addition,the transducer must have the durability to sur
48、vive repeatedimpact tests without change in output from its initially cali-brated state.NOTE A1.1Failure has been shown to be difficult to universallydefine. One application might define failure as the point on a load versustime curve where the load returns to zero. Another might define failure asa

Appendix X1,(X1.9.3) describes amethod for approximating fdevfor any given transducer assem-bly.A1.1.3 Transducer LocationThe transducer should belocated as close as possible to the impact point of thetransducer/striker assembly to minimize the mass effect
