1、Designation: D 1709 04Standard Test Methods forImpact Resistance of Plastic Film by the Free-Falling DartMethod1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D 1709; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of

2、 last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon (e) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.This standard has been approved for use by agencies of the Department of Defense.1. Scope*1.1 These test methods cover the deter

3、mination of theenergy that causes plastic film to fail under specified conditionsof impact of a free-falling dart. This energy is expressed interms of the weight (mass) of the missile falling from aspecified height which would result in 50 % failure of speci-mens tested.1.2 Two test methods are desc

4、ribed:1.2.1 Test Method A employs a dart with a38.10 6 0.13-mm 1.500 6 0.005-in. diameter hemisphericalhead dropped from a height of 0.66 6 0.01 m 26.0 6 0.4 in.This test method may be used for films whose impact resis-tances require masses of about 50 g or less to about 2 kg tofracture them.1.2.2 T

5、est Method B employs a dart with a50.80 6 0.13-mm 2.000 6 0.005-in. diameter hemisphericalhead dropped from a height of 1.50 6 0.03 m 60.0 + 0.25,1.70 in. Its range of applicability is from about 0.3 kg toabout 2 kg.1.3 Two testing techniques are described:1.3.1 The standard technique is the stairca

6、se method. Bythis technique, a uniform missile weight increment is employedduring test and the missile weight is decreased or increased bythe uniform increment after test of each specimen, dependingupon the result (fail or not fail) observed for the specimen.1.3.2 The alternative technique provides

7、for testing speci-mens in successive groups of ten. One missile weight isemployed for each group and missile weight is varied inuniform increments from group to group.1.3.3 The staircase technique and the alternative techniquegive equivalent results both as to the values of impact failureweight whic

8、h are obtained and as to the precisions with whichthey are determined.1.4 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded asstandard. The values stated in parentheses are for informationonly.NOTE 1Tests on materials that do not break, for any reason, are notconsidered to be valid. It has been noted

9、 that certain materials may stretchso far as to bottom out at the base of certain test instruments withoutactually rupturing. Subcommittee D20.19 is currently considering meth-ods for testing these materials.Anyone interested in participating in a TaskGroup should contact the Chairman of Subcommitte

10、e D20.19 throughASTM International Headquarters.NOTE 2This test method is technically equivalent to ISO 7765-1:1988, with the exception of a larger tolerance on the drop height in TestMethod B. Also, the ISO method does not allow the alternative testingtechnique described in Section 11 of this test

11、method.1.5 This standard does not purport to address the safetyconcerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibilityof the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety andhealth practices and determine the applicability of regulatorylimitations prior to use.2. Referenced Docum

Terminology3.1 DefinitionsFor definitions

17、related to plastics, seeTerminology D 883.3.2 Definitions of Terms Specific to This Standard:3.2.1 failureany break through the film that can be ob-served readily by feeling or by viewing the specimen underbacklighted condition.3.2.2 impact failure weightthat missile weight, estimatedstatistically,

18、at which 50 % of the specimens would fail in thespecified test.3.2.3 missile weightthe weight (mass) of the dart plus thetotal value of incremental weights attached plus the lockingcollar.4. Significance and Use4.1 Test MethodsAand B are used to establish the weight ofthe dart when 50 % of the speci

19、mens fail under the conditionsspecified. Data obtained by one test method cannot be com-pared directly with the other test method nor with thoseobtained from tests employing different conditions of missilevelocity, impinging surface diameter, effective specimen diam-eter, and thickness. The values o

20、btained by these test variablesare highly dependent on the method of film fabrication.4.2 The results obtained by Test Methods A and B aregreatly influenced by the quality of film under test. Theconfidence limits of data obtained by this procedure can,therefore, vary significantly, depending on the

21、sample quality,uniformity of film gage, die marks, contaminants, etc. (seeSection 15).4.3 Test Methods A and B have been found useful forspecification purposes. Correlation between test results andfield performance can usually be established.4.4 The impact resistance of plastic film, while partlydep

22、endent on thickness, has no simple correlation with samplethickness. Hence, impact values cannot be normalized over arange of thickness without producing misleading data as to theactual impact resistance of the material. Data from these testmethods are comparable only for specimens that vary by nomo

23、re than 625 % from the nominal or average thickness of thespecimens tested.4.5 Several impact test methods are used for film. It issometimes desirable to know the relationships among testresults derived by different test methods. A study was con-ducted in which four films made from two resins (polyp

24、ropy-lene and linear low-density polyethylene), with two filmthicknesses for each resin, were impacted using Test MethodsD 1709 (Method A), D 3420 (Procedures A and B), andD 4272. The test results are shown in the Appendix. Differ-ences in results betweenTest Methods D 1709 and D 4272 maybe expected

25、 since Test Methods D 1709 represents failureinitiated energy, while Test Method D 4272 is initiation pluscompletion energy. Some films may show consistency whenthe initiation energy is the same as the total energy. Thisstatement and the test data also appear in the significancesections and appendix

26、es of Test Methods D 3420 and D 4272.5. Apparatus5.1 The apparatus shall be constructed essentially as shownin Fig. 1, using the following components common to both testmethods:5.1.1 Dart WellIf the dart impact machine utilizes anenclosed dart well, it must contain a single unobstructed ventwith a m

27、inimum area of 625 mm2(1 in.2) to provide adequateventing.NOTE 3Some dart impact machine designs utilize enclosed dart wellsthat do not permit adequate venting to the atmosphere during impact. Datahave shown that this has a significant effect on the observed impact value,especially with films that e

28、xhibit high elongation during testing, resultingin atypically high impact values.NOTE 4The use of smaller, multiple vents is permitted if it can bedemonstrated that the venting efficiency is comparable and has nostatistically significant effect on the values obtained.5.1.2 Specimen ClampA two-piece

29、annular specimenclamp having an inside diameter of 125 6 2.0 mm 5.0 + 0.0,0.15 in. and conforming to the following requirements:5.1.2.1 The lower or stationary half of the clamp shall bemounted rigidly so that the plane of the specimen is horizontal.5.1.2.2 The upper or movable part of the clamp sha

31、ed.5.1.2.3 Rubber-like gaskets may be affixed to the specimencontact surfaces of both clamps to provide a cushion whichminimizes thickness variation effects.

33、pe so that the abrasive surface is in direct contactwith the film. There should be sufficient clamping force toeliminate detectable slippage. Other means of reducing slip-page such as additional clamping devices or positive clampingsurfaces may be used provided that the film is not weakened atthe in
