23、n of compression strength after impact Identity block EN6038 Number of this standard 6 Apparatus 6.1 Impact machine: drop weight impact tester, capable of capturing the drop weight after the first impact so that a restrike shall not occur (see Figure 3). 6.2 Impactor with the following characteristi
24、cs (see Figure 1). 6.3 Flat-faced micrometer with 6 mm diameter anvils, calibrated to within 0,01 mm. 6.4 Depth gauge with hemispheric adapter, diameter 3 mm and calibrated to within 0,01 mm accuracy. 6.5 Test machine accurate to within 1 % in the relevant load range. 6.6 Compression tools (drawings
25、 in Figure 4 for information). 6.7 Vernier slide callipers calibrated to within 0,1 mm. 7 Test specimen 7.1 Specimen description For the description, dimensions, tolerances see Figure 5. 7.2 Specimen preparation The specimens are cut out from laminates. The coefficient of variation in the thickness
26、measurements shall be smaller than 2 % per laminate. The laminates shall be produced according to EN 2565 for carbon, or according to EN 2374 for glass. The laminate should be inspected for example by C-Scan to establish that the laminate is worth testing. If the NDT reveals unacceptable defects, li
27、mits defined by the specification invoking the test, the laminate should not be tested. The process parameters shall be in line with the specification invoking the test. BS EN 6038:2015EN 6038:2015 (E) 6 7.3 Number of specimens Eight specimens shall be tested, one for each energy specified as define
28、d in 8.3. Three specimens shall be tested at the BVID as defined in 8.5. 8 Procedure 8.1 Conditioning The storage and testing of the dry specimens shall be carried out at (23 2) C, (50 5) % relative humidity in accordance with EN 2743. 8.2 Determination of dimensions Measure and record the thickness
29、 and width at three points of the specimen. Use the micrometer for the thickness and the vernier slide callipers for the width. 8.3 Impact tests As shown in Figure 3, secure the specimen to a flat mounting plate using four snap fasteners. This leaves a clear window of 75 ( 0,1) 125 ( 0,2) mm. Set th
30、e drop height according to the selected impact energy (see formula in 9.1). Subject the specimens to impact with energy: 9, 12, 16, 20 and 25 joules (impactor 1 kg to 3 kg), 30 and 40 joules (impactor 4 kg to 6 kg). The specimens must only receive one impact. Therefore bouncing must be prevented usi
31、ng a suitable device. 8.4 Indentation inspection Inspect each specimen and assess, on the impact face and the opposite face: the visibility of the indentation, any breaks in the fibres. Just prior to perform the compression test, set the specimen between two appropriate tabs. Using a depth gauge, me
32、asure the indentation depth on the impacted face to within 0,05 mm with the following procedure: measure the depth gauge value in the deapest part of the indented area, then measure the depth gauge value on 4 points as shown in Figure 2 and substract from the value in the indented area, the indented
33、 depth is the average of these 4 values. BS EN 6038:2015EN 6038:2015 (E) 7 8.5 Study of the barely visible impact damage (BVID) Draw up the curve of the evolution of the indentation depth as a function of the impact energy. By linear interpolation, determine the energy EBVID(energy for the barely vi
34、sible impact damage) corresponding to an indentation of 0,3 mm. Subject three specimens to impact with energy EBVID. After having been impacted inspect on those three specimens the depth of the indentation (same as defined 8.4) and perform the compression test (same as defined in 8.6). 8.6 Compressi
35、on tests on impacted specimens Compression strength after impact has to be determined for all the specimens subjected to impact testing. If required in the relevant specification, two strain gauges should be on the front face of the lowest impact energy specimen. Carefully align the impacted specime
36、n in the test rig (if any, the strain gauges should be at the top of the specimen during testing). Select the range of loads so that break failure occurs between 20 % and 80 % of the scale. Select a cross head speed of 0,5 mm/min. Note the load Pr of the break failure. Record the curve load versus t
37、ime. 9 Presentation of the results 9.1 Impact energy Energy E is expressed (depending on the test machine used) in joules using the formula: E = m g h or E = 1/2 m v2where E impact energy, in J; m is the impactor mass, in kg; g = 9,81 in m/s2;h is the drop height,in m; v is the speed at which the im
38、pactor impacts the specimen, in m/s.
