Sampling8.1 The specimens may be cut from sheets, plates, ormolded shapes, or may be molded to the desired finisheddimensions.8.2 The specimens used in this test method are ordinarily inthe form of rectangular beams with aspect ratios of 1: 3: 10 forthickn

27、ess or specimen depth (d), width (b) and length (l),depending upon the modulus of the sample and length of thesupport span (L).NOTE 3Other specimen and support dimensions may be used but caremust be taken that the support length to specimen thickness ratio (L/d)begreater than 10.NOTE 4The specimen s

30、92 18a29.2 Calibrate the deflection (length change) display of theapparatus according to the instrument manufacturers instruc-tions (see Test Method E2113).9.3 Calibrate the mechanism for applying force to the testspecimen according to the instrument manufacturers instruc-tions (see Test Method E220

31、6).10. Procedure10.1 Measure the test length (L) of the test specimen as thedistance between the two support points of the flexure supportgeometry to three significant figures (see Fig. 1).10.2 Measure the width (b) and thickness (d) of the testspecimen to three significant figures (see Fig. 2).10.3

32、 Select the stress (S) to be applied to the test specimen.This value is typically 0.455 (Method A) or 1.82 MPa (MethodB) to correspond with the values used in Test Method D648.NOTE 6Other values may be used but shall be reported.10.4 Select the strain (r) to be used to identify the heatdistortion te

33、mperature.NOTE 7This value is typically 2.0 mm/m (0.20 %) to correspond withthe values used in Test Method D648.10.5 Using Eq 1, calculate to three significant figures theforce (F) to be applied to the test specimen.10.6 Using Eq 3, calculate to three significant figures thedeflection (D) to be used

34、 as the experimental endpoint.10.7 Center the specimen on the supports, with the long axisof the specimen perpendicular to the loading nose and supports(see Fig. 1).NOTE 8The typical rectangular test beam is tested flatwise on thesupport span, with the applied force through its thinnest dimension.10

35、.8 Set initial experimental conditions by placing the testspecimen into flexure support, loading the compression probeonto the center of the test specimen in the three-point bendingmode with the force calculated in 10.5. Set the deflection-axissignal to be zero at ambient temperature.10.9 Program th

36、e temperature from ambient temperature at2 C/min 6 0.1 C/min until the deflection, D 6 10 %,determined in 10.6, is obtained while recording specimendeflection and temperature. Once the deflection value isachieved, terminate the temperature program and remove theload from the test specimen. Cool the

37、apparatus to ambienttemperature.NOTE 9Should the approximate distortion temperature of the materialbe known, the temperature program might be started at an elevatedtemperature that shall be at least 50 C below the anticipated distortiontemperature.10.10 Perform a baseline determination similar to se

38、ction10.9 except that the test specimen is the inverted flexurefixture.NOTE 10This step measures the deflection of the rigid specimenholder, flexure fixture and rigid knife edge compression probe.10.11 For ease of interpretation, display the thermal curvesfrom sections 10.9 and 10.10 with deflection

39、 displayed on theY-axis and temperature on the X-axis as illustrated in Fig. 3,both axes set to the same scale sensitivity.10.12 Using the same Y-axis scale sensitivity, subtract thebaseline curve from 10.11 from the test specimen curve from10.9.FIG. 2 Test Specimen GeometryE2092 18a310.13 The disto

Precision and Bias13.1 An i

45、nterlaboratory test was conducted in 2003 todevelop the precision and bias statement for this test method.Eight laboratories, using apparatus from two manufacturersand two stress levels, characterized a poly(vinyl chloride)sample in quintuplicate. Six laboratories produced results at aFIG. 3 Thermal

46、 Curve for Poly(vinyl chloride)E2092 18a4stress level of 0.455 MPa (Method A) and two laboratories at1.82 MPa (Method B).313.2 Precision:13.2.1 Within laboratory variability may be described usingthe repeatability value (r) obtained by multiplying the repeat-ability standard deviation by 2.8. The re

47、peatability valuesestimates the 95 % confidence limit. That is, two results fromthe same laboratory should be considered suspect (at the 95 %confidence level) if they differ by more than the repeatabilityvalue.13.2.1.1 The within laboratory repeatability standard devia-tion from results obtained at

48、0.455 MPa stress level (MethodA) was found to be 0.92 C with 20 degrees of experimentalfreedom.13.2.1.2 The within laboratory repeatability standard devia-tion for results obtained at 1.82 MPa stress level (Method B)was found to be 0.84 C with 4 degrees of experimentalfreedom.NOTE 11Twenty degrees o

49、f freedom is the minimum acceptable for asound interlaboratory test. Insufficient laboratories were available toprovide results at the 1.82 MPa stress level. Thus the information providedhere for this load level is for informational purposes only.13.2.2 Between laboratory variability may be describedusing the reproducibility value (R) obtained by multiplying thereproducibility standard deviation by 2.8. The reproducibilityvalue estimates the 95 % confidence limit. That is, resultsobtained in two different laboratories should
