20、Significance and Use4.1 This test method may be used for material development,material comparison, quality assurance, characterization anddesign code or model verification.4.2 Engineering applications of ceramics frequently involvebiaxial tensile stresses. Generally, the resistance to equibiaxialfle

21、xure is the measure of the least flexural strength of amonolithic advanced ceramic. The equibiaxial flexural strengthdistributions of ceramics are probabilistic and can be describedby a weakest link failure theory, (1, 2)4. Therefore, a sufficientnumber of test specimens at each testing condition is

22、 requiredfor statistical estimation or the equibiaxial strength.4.3 Equibiaxial strength tests provide information on thestrength and deformation of materials under multiple tensilestresses. Multiaxial stress states are required to effectivelyevaluate failure theories applicable to component design,

23、 andto efficiently sample surfaces that may exhibit anisotropic flawdistributions. Equibiaxial tests also minimize the effects of testspecimen edge preparation as compared to uniaxial testsbecause the generated stresses are lowest at the test specimenedges.4.4 The test results of equibiaxial test sp

24、ecimens fabricatedto standardized dimensions from a particular material and/orselected portions of a component may not totally represent thestrength properties in the entire, full-size component or itsin-service behavior in different environments.4.5 For quality control purposes, results derived fro

25、m stan-dardized equibiaxial test specimens may be considered indica-tive of the response of the bulk material from which they weretaken for any given primary processing conditions and post-processing heat treatments or exposures.5. Interferences5.1 Test environment (vacuum, inert gas, ambient air, e

26、tc.)including moisture content (for example, relative humidity)may have an influence on the measured equibiaxial strength.Testing to evaluate the maximum strength potential of amaterial can be conducted in inert environments and/or atsufficiently rapid testing rates so as to minimize any environ-men

27、tal effects. Conversely, testing can be conducted in envi-ronments, test modes and test rates representative of serviceconditions to evaluate material performance under use condi-tions.5.2 Fabrication of test specimens can introduce dimensionalvariations that may have pronounced effects on the measu

28、redequibiaxial mechanical properties and behavior (for example,shape and level of the resulting stress-strain curve, equibiaxialstrength, failure location, etc.). Surface preparation can alsolead to the introduction of residual stresses and final machiningsteps might or might not negate machining da

29、mage introducedduring the initial machining. Therefore, as universal or stan-dardized methods of surface preparation do not exist, the testspecimen fabrication history should be reported. In addition,the nature of fabrication used for certain advanced ceramiccomponents may require testing of specime

30、ns with surfaces inthe as-fabricated condition (that is, it may not be possible,desired or required to machine some of the test specimensurfaces directly in contact with the test fixture). For veryrough or wavy as-fabricated surfaces, perturbations in thestress state due to non-symmetric cross-secti

31、ons as well asvariations in the cross-sectional dimensions may also interferewith the equibiaxial strength measurement. Finally, closegeometric tolerances, particularly in regard to flatness of testspecimen surfaces in contact with the test fixture componentsare critical requirements for successful

32、equibiaxial tests. Insome cases it may be appropriate to use other test methods (forexample, Test Method F 394).5.3 Contact and frictional stresses in equibiaxial tests canintroduce localized failure not representative of the equibiaxialstrength under ideal loading conditions. These effects mayresul

33、t in either over or under estimates of the actual strength (1,3).5.4 Fractures that consistently initiate near or just outsidethe load-ring may be due to factors such as friction or contactstresses introduced by the load fixtures, or via misalignment ofthe test specimen rings. Such fractures will no

34、rmally constituteinvalid tests (see Note 14). Splitting of the test specimen alonga diameter that expresses the characteristic size may resultfrom poor test specimen preparation (for example, severegrinding or very poor edge preparation), excessive tangentialstresses at the test specimen edges, or a

35、 very weak material.Such fractures will constitute invalid tests if failure occurredfrom the edge.5.5 Deflections greater than one-quarter of the test specimenthickness can result in nonlinear behavior and stresses notaccounted for by simple plate theory.4The boldface numbers in parentheses refer to

36、 the list of references at the end ofthis standard.C14990925.6 Warpage of the test specimen can result in nonuniformloading and contact stresses that result in incorrect estimates ofthe test specimens actual equibiaxial strength. The test speci-men shall meet the flatness requirements (see 8.2 and 8

37、.3)orbespecifically noted as warped and considered as a censored test.6. Apparatus6.1 Testing MachinesMachines used for equibiaxial test-ing shall conform to the requirements of Practices E4. Theload cells used in determining equibiaxial strength shall beaccurate within 61 % at any load within the s

38、elected loadrange of the testing machine as defined in Practice E4. Checkthat the expected breaking load for the desired test specimengeometry and test material is within the capacity of the testmachine and load cell. Advanced ceramic equibiaxial testspecimens require greater loads to fracture than

39、those usuallyencountered in uniaxial flexure of test specimens with similarcross sectional dimensions.6.2 Loading Fixtures for Concentric Ring TestingAnassembly drawing of a fixture and a test specimen is shown inFig. 1, and the geometries of the load and support rings aregiven in Fig. 2.6.2.1 Loadi

40、ng Rods and PlatensSurfaces of the supportplaten shall be flat and parallel to 0.05 mm. The face of the loadrod in contact with the support platen shall be flat to 0.025 mm.In addition, the two loading rods shall be parallel to 0.05 mmper 25 mm length and concentric to 0.25 mm when installed inthe t

41、est machine.6.2.2 Loading Fixture and Ring GeometryIdeally, thebases of the load and support fixtures should have the sameouter diameter as the test specimen for ease of alignment.Parallelism and flatness of faces as well as concentricity of theload and support rings shall be as given in Fig. 2. The

42、 ratio ofthe load ring diameter, DL, to that of the support ring, DS, shallbe 0.2#DL/DS#0.5. For test materials exhibiting low elasticmodulus (E 1 GPa) it isrecommended that the ratio of the load ring diameter to that ofthe support ring be DL/DS= 0.2. The sizes of the load andsupport rings depend on

43、 the dimensions and the properties ofthe ceramic material to be tested. The rings are sized to thethickness, diameter, strength, and elastic modulus of theceramic test specimens (see Section 8). For test specimensmade from typical substrates (h 0.5 mm), a support ringdiameter as small as 12 mm may b

44、e required. For testspecimens to be used for model verification, it is recommendedthat the test specimen support diameter be at least 35 mm. Thetip radius, r, of the cross sections of the load and support ringsshould be h/2 # r # 3h/2.6.2.3 Load and Support Ring MaterialsFor machined testspecimens (

45、see Section 8) the load and support fixtures shall bemade of hardened steel of HRC 40. For as-fabricated testspecimens, the load/support rings shall be made of steel oracetyl polymer.6.2.4 Compliant Layer and Friction EliminationThebrittle nature of advanced ceramics and the sensitivity tomisalignme

46、nt, contact stresses and friction may require acompliant interface between the load/support rings and the testspecimen, especially if the test specimen is not flat. Line orpoint contact stresses and frictional stresses can lead to crackinitiation and fracture of the test specimen at stresses other t

47、hanthe actual equibiaxial strength.6.2.4.1 Machined Test SpecimensFor test specimens ma-chined according to the tolerance in Fig. 3, a compliant layer isnot necessary. However, friction needs to be eliminated. Placea sheet of carbon foil (0.13 mm thick) or Teflon tape (0.07mm thick) between the comp

48、ressive and tensile surfaces of thetest specimen and the load and support rings.NOTE 1Thicker layers of carbon foil or Teflon tape may be used,particularly for very strong plates. However, excessively thick layers willredistribute the contact region and may affect results. The thicknessesFIG. 1 Sect

49、ion View and Perspective View of Basic Fixturing and Test Specimen for Equibiaxial TestingC1499093listed above have been used successfully. Guidance regarding the use ofthick layers cannot be given currently; some judgement may be required.Alternatively, an appropriate lubricant (anti-seizing com-pound or Teflon oil) may be used to minimize friction. Thelubricant should be placed only on the load and support ringsso that effects of the test environment are not significantlyaltered. To aid fractographic examination, place a single stripof adhesive tape
