Significance and Use4.1 This test method may be used for material development, quality control, characterization, and design data generationpurposes. This test m

23、ethod is intended to be used with ceramics whose strength is 50 MPa (7 ksi) or greater. The test methodmay also be used with glass test specimens, although Test Methods C158 is specifically designed to be used for glasses. This testmethod may be used with machined, drawn, extruded, and as-fired roun

24、d specimens. This test method may be used with specimensthat have elliptical cross section geometries.4.2 The flexure strength is computed based on simple beam theory with assumptions that the material is isotropic andhomogeneous, the moduli of elasticity in tension and compression are identical, an

25、d the material is linearly elastic. The averagegrain size should be no greater than one fiftieth one-fiftieth of the rod diameter. The homogeneity and isotropy assumptions in thestandard rule out the use of this test for continuous fiber-reinforced ceramics.FIG. 1 Four-Point-14 Point -Point Flexure

26、Loading ConfigurationC1684 1824.3 Flexural strength of a group of test specimens is influenced by several parameters associated with the test procedure. Suchfactors include the loading rate, test environment, specimen size, specimen preparation, and test fixtures (1-3).3 This methodincludes specific

27、 specimen-fixture size combinations, but permits alternative configurations within specified limits. Thesecombinations were chosen to be practical, to minimize experimental error, and permit easy comparison of cylindrical rod strengthswith data for other configurations. Equations for the Weibull eff

28、ective volume and Weibull effective surface are included.4.4 The flexural strength of a ceramic material is dependent on both its inherent resistance to fracture and the size and severityof flaws in the material. Flaws in rods may be intrinsically volume-distributed throughout the bulk. Some of thes

29、e flaws by chancemay be located at or near the outer surface. Flaws may alternatively be intrinsically surface-distributed with all flaws located onthe outer specimen surface. Grinding cracks fit the latter category. Variations in the flaws cause a natural scatter in strengths fora set of test speci

30、mens. Fractographic analysis of fracture surfaces, although beyond the scope of this standard, is highlyrecommended for all purposes, especially if the data will be used for design as discussed in Refs (3-5) and Practices C1322 andC1239.4.5 The three-point test configuration exposes only a very smal

31、l portion of the specimen to the maximum stress. Therefore,three-point flexural strengths are likely to be greater than four-point flexural strengths. Three-point flexure has some advantages.It uses simpler test fixtures, it is easier to adapt to high temperature and fracture toughness testing, and

32、it is sometimes helpful inWeibull statistical studies. It also uses smaller force to break a specimen. It is also convenient for very short, stubby specimenswhich would be difficult to test in four-point loading. Nevertheless, four-point flexure is preferred and recommended for mostcharacterization

33、purposes.5. Interferences5.1 The effects of time-dependent phenomena, such as stress corrosion or slow crack growth on strength tests conducted atambient temperature, can be meaningful even for the relatively short times involved during testing. Such influences must beconsidered if flexure tests are

34、 to be used to generate design data. Slow crack growth can lead to a rate dependency of flexuralstrength. The testing rate specified in this standard may or may not produce the inert flexural strength whereby negligible slowcrack growth occurs. See Test Method C1368.5.2 Surface preparation of test s

35、pecimens can introduce machining microcracks which may have a pronounced effect on flexuralstrength (6). Machining damage imposed during specimen preparation can be either a random interfering factor, or an inherent partof the strength characteristic to be measured. With proper care and good machini

36、ng practice, it is possible to obtain fractures fromthe materials natural flaws. Surface preparation can also lead to residual stresses. It should be understood that final machiningsteps may or may not negate machining damage introduced during the early coarse or intermediate machining.5.3 This test

37、 method allows several options for the preparation of specimens. The method allows testing of as-fabricated (e.g.,(for example, as-fired or as-drawn), application-matched machining, customary, or one of three specific grinding procedures. Thelatter “standard procedures” (see 7.2.4) are satisfactory

38、for many (but certainly not all) ceramics. Centerless or transverse grindingaligns the severest machining microcracks perpendicular to the rod tension stress axis. The specimen may fracture from the3 The boldface numbers in parentheses refer to the list of references at the end of this standard.FIG.

Transverse-ground specimens in many instances may provide a more “practical strength” that is relevantto machined ceramic components whereby it may not be possible to favorably align the machining direction. Therefore, this

40、testmethod allows transverse grinding for normal specimen preparation purposes. Longitudinal grinding, which is commonly used toorient grinding damage cracks in rectangular bend bars, is less commonly used for rod specimens, but is also permitted by thistest method.6.

The force measuring system shall be free of initial lag at the loading rates used and shall be equipped with a meansfor retaining read-out of the maximum force applied to the specimen. The ac

When possible, use one of the outersupport and inner loading span combinations listed in Table 1. Other span sizes may be used if these siz

The ratio of the fixture outer span length to the specimen diameter shall not be less than 3.0.6.3 Three-Point FlexureThree-point flexure may be used if four-point is not satisfactory, such as if the specimens are veryshort and stubby and consequently re

44、quire very large breaking forces in four-point loading. When possible, use one of the supportspans listed in Table 1 for three-point loading. Other span sizes may be used if these sizes are not suitable for a specific round part.The outer fixture span length to specimen diameter ratio shall not be l

45、ess than 3.0.6.4 Loading RollersForce shall be applied to the test pieces directly by rollers as described in this section (6.4) or alternativelyby rollers with cradles as described in 6.5.6.4.1 This test method permits direct contact of rod specimens with loading and support rollers. Direct contact

46、 may cause twoproblems, however. The crossed cylinder arrangement creates intense contact stresses in both the loading roller and the testspecimen due to the very small contact footprint. The magnitude of the contact stresses depends upon the applied forces, the rollerand test specimen diameters, an

47、d their elastic properties.6.4.2 SectionParagraph 6.4.5 provides guidance on how to minimize or eliminate permanent deformation that may occur in theloading rollers due to contact stresses.6.4.3 Direct loading by rollers onto the rod test specimens may cause premature test specimen fracture invalida

48、ting the test.Examples are shown in Annex A1. Contact stresses may generate shallow Hertzian cone cracks in the test specimen. Minorcracking at an inner loading point (on the compression-loaded side of the test rod) usually is harmless since it does not causespecimen breakage and forces are transmit

49、ted through the crack faces. In extreme conditions, however, such as loading of short,stubby specimens in 3-pointthree-point or 4-pointfour-point loading, the magnitude of the forces and contact stresses may be greatenough to drive a Hertzian crack deep into the test specimen cross section. Contact cracks at the outer support rollers may bedeleterious and cause an undesirable fracture of the specimen, even though these locations are far away from the inner span in4-pointfour-point loading or the middle in 3-pointthree-point loading.
