Plastics. Determination of tensile properties at high strain rates

31-05-2007
This International Standard specifies procedures for determining the tensile properties of moulding and extrusion plastics over a wide range of strain rates, including high rates appropriate to impact-loading situations. Properties are determined through a combination of measurements at low and moderate strain rates, the use of mathematical functions to model these results, the rate-dependence of parameters and the determination of parameters at high strain rates by extrapolation. Tensile properties at high strain rates are then derived by calculation. In this way, the experimental problems and associated errors with the measurement of properties at high rates are avoided.
The measurement of properties at low and moderate strain rates is based on ISO527-2, which identifies the types of plastics materials to which this International Standard is applicable.
