Summary of Test Method4.1 The determination of tensile properties starts with testpiec

16、es taken from the sample material and includes thepreparation of the specimens and the testing of the specimens.Specimens may be in the shape of dumbbells, rings or straightpieces of uniform cross-sectional area.4.2 Measurements for tensile stress, tensile stress at a givenelongation, tensile streng

17、th, yield point, and ultimate elonga-tion are made on specimens that have not been prestressed.Tensile stress, yield point, and tensile strength are based on theoriginal cross-sectional area of a uniform cross-section of thespecimen.4.3 Measurement of tensile set is made after a previouslyunstressed

18、 specimen has been extended and allowed to retractby a prescribed procedure. Measurement of “set after break” isalso described.5. Significance and Use5.1 All materials and products covered by these test meth-ods must withstand tensile forces for adequate performance incertain applications. These tes

19、t methods allow for the measure-ment of such tensile properties. However, tensile propertiesalone may not directly relate to the total end use performanceof the product because of the wide range of potential perfor-mance requirements in actual use.5.2 Tensile properties depend both on the material a

20、nd theconditions of test (extension rate, temperature, humidity, speci-men geometry, pretest conditioning, etc.); therefore materialsshould be compared only when tested under the same condi-tions.5.3 Temperature and rate of extension may have substantialeffects on tensile properties and therefore sh

21、ould be controlled.These effects will vary depending on the type of material beingtested.5.4 Tensile set represents residual deformation which ispartly permanent and partly recoverable after stretching andretraction. For this reason, the periods of extension andrecovery (and other conditions of test

22、) must be controlled toobtain comparable results.6. Apparatus6.1 Testing MachineTension tests shall be made on apower driven machine equipped to produce a uniform rate ofgrip separation of 500 6 50 mm/min (20 6 2 in./min) for adistance of at least 750 mm (30 in.) (see Note 2). The testingmachine sha

23、ll have both a suitable dynamometer and anindicating or recording system for measuring the applied forcewithin 62 %. If the capacity range cannot be changed for a test(as in the case of pendulum dynamometers) the applied force atbreak shall be measured within 62 % of the full scale value,and the sma

24、llest tensile force measured shall be accurate towithin 10 %. If the dynamometer is of the compensating typefor measuring tensile stress directly, means shall be provided toadjust for the cross-sectional area of the specimen. Theresponse of the recorder shall be sufficiently rapid that theapplied fo

25、rce is measured with the requisite accuracy duringthe extension of the specimen to rupture. If the testing machineis not equipped with a recorder, a device shall be provided thatindicates, after rupture, the maximum force applied duringextension. Testing machine systems shall be capable of mea-surin

26、g elongation of the test specimen in minimum incrementsof 10 %.NOTE 2Arate of elongation of 1000 6 100 mm/min (40 6 4 in./min)may be used and notation of the speed made in the report. In case ofdispute, the test shall be repeated and the rate of elongation shall be at 5006 50 mm/min (20 6 2 in./min)

27、.6.2 Test Chamber for Elevated and Low TemperaturesThetest chamber shall conform with the following requirements:6.2.1 Air shall be circulated through the chamber at avelocity of 1 to 2 m/s (3.3 to 6.6 ft/s) at the location of the gripsor spindles and specimens maintained within 2C (3.6F) of thespec

28、ified temperature.6.2.2 A calibrated sensing device shall be located near thegrips or spindles for measuring the actual temperature.6.2.3 The chamber shall be vented to an exhaust system orto the outside atmosphere to remove fumes liberated at hightemperatures.6.2.4 Provisions shall be made for susp

29、ending specimensvertically near the grips or spindles for conditioning prior totest. The specimens shall not touch each other or the sides ofthe chamber except for momentary contact when agitated bythe circulating air.6.2.5 Fast acting grips suitable for manipulation at high orlow temperatures may b

30、e provided to permit placing dumbbellsor straight specimens in the grips in the shortest time possibleto minimize any change in temperature of the chamber.6.2.6 The dynamometer shall be suitable for use at thetemperature of test or it shall be thermally insulated from thechamber.6.2.7 Provision shal

31、l be made for measuring the elongationof specimens in the chamber. If a scale is used to measure theextension between the bench-marks, the scale shall be locatedparallel and close to the grip path during specimen extensionand shall be controlled from outside the chamber.6.3 Dial MicrometerThe dial m

32、icrometer shall conform tothe requirements of Practice D3767 (Method A). For ringspecimens, see 14.10 of these test methods.6.4 Apparatus for Tensile Set TestThe testing machinedescribed in 6.1 or an apparatus similar to that shown in Fig. 1may be used. A stop watch or other suitable timing deviceme

33、asuring in minute intervals for at least 30 min, shall beprovided. A scale or other device shall be provided formeasuring tensile set to within 1 %.7. Selection of Test Specimens7.1 Consider the following information in making selec-tions:7.1.1 Since anisotropy or grain directionality due to flowint

34、roduced during processing and preparation may have anD412 06a (2013)2influence on tensile properties, dumbbell or straight specimensshould be cut so the lengthwise direction of the specimen isparallel to the grain direction when this direction is known.Ring specimens normally give an average of with

35、 and acrossthe grain properties.7.1.2 Unless otherwise noted, thermoplastic rubber or ther-moplastic elastomer specimens, or both, are to be cut frominjection molded sheets or plaques with a thickness of 3.0 60.3 mm. Specimens of other thickness will not necessarily givecomparable results. Specimens

36、 are to be tested in directionsboth parallel and perpendicular to the direction of flow in themold. Sheet or plaque dimensions must be sufficient to do this.7.1.3 Ring specimens enable elongations to be measured bygrip separation, but the elongation across the radial width ofthe ring specimens is no

37、t uniform. To minimize this effect thewidth of the ring specimens must be small compared to thediameter.7.1.4 Straight specimens tend to break in the grips if normalextension-to-break testing is conducted and should be usedonly when it is not feasible to prepare another type ofspecimen. For obtainin

38、g non-rupture stress-strain or materialmodulus properties, straight specimens are quite useful.7.1.5 The size of specimen type used will be determined bythe material, test equipment and the sample or piece availableFIG. 1 Apparatus for Tensile Set TestD412 06a (2013)3for test.Alonger specimen may be

39、 used for rubbers having lowultimate elongation to improve precision of elongation mea-surement.8. Calibration of the Testing Machine8.1 Calibrate the testing machine in accordance with Proce-dure A of Practices E4. If the dynamometer is of the strain-gauge type, calibrate the tester at one or more

40、forces in additionto the requirements in Sections 7 and 18 of Practices E4.Testers having pendulum dynamometers may be calibrated asfollows:8.1.1 Place one end of a dumbbell specimen in the uppergrip of the testing machine.8.1.2 Remove the lower grip from the machine and attach it,by means of the gr

41、ipping mechanism to the dumbbell specimenin the upper grip.8.1.3 Attach a hook to the lower end of the lower specimengrip mechanism.8.1.4 Suspend a known mass from the hook of the lowerspecimen grip mechanism in such a way as to permit the massassembly to temporarily rest on the lower testing machin

42、e gripframework or holder (see Note 3).8.1.5 Start the grip separation motor or mechanism, as innormal testing, and allow it to run until the mass is freelysuspended by the specimen in the upper grip.8.1.6 If the dial or scale does not indicate the force applied(or its equivalent in stress for a com

43、pensating type tester)within specified tolerance, thoroughly inspect the testing ma-chine for malfunction (for example, excess friction in bearingsand other moving parts). Ensure that the mass of the lower gripmechanism and the hook are included as part of the knownmass.8.1.7 After machine friction

44、or other malfunction has beenremoved, recalibrate the testing machine at a minimum of threepoints using known masses to produce forces of approximately10, 20 and 50 % of capacity. If pawls or rachets are used duringroutine testing, use them for calibration. Check for friction inthe head by calibrati

45、ng with the pawls up.NOTE 3It is advisable to provide a means for preventing the knownmass from falling to the floor in case the dumbbell should break.8.2 A rapid approximate calibration of the testing machinemay be obtained by using a spring calibration device.9. Test Temperature9.1 Unless otherwis

46、e specified, the standard temperature fortesting shall be 23 6 2C (73.4 6 3.6F). Specimens shall beconditioned for at least 3 h when the test temperature is 23C(73.4F). If the material is affected by moisture, maintain therelative humidity at 50 6 5 % and condition the specimens forat least 24 h pri

47、or to testing. When testing at any othertemperature is required use one of the temperatures listed inPractice D1349.9.2 For testing at temperatures above 23C (73.4F) preheatspecimens for 10 6 2 min for MethodAand for 6 6 2 min forMethod B. Place each specimen in the test chamber at intervalsahead of

48、 testing so that all specimens of a series will be in thechamber the same length of time. The preheat time at elevatedtemperatures must be limited to avoid additional vulcanizationor thermal aging.9.3 For testing at temperatures below 23C (73.4F) condi-tion the specimens at least 10 min prior to tes

49、ting.TEST METHOD ADUMBBELL AND STRAIGHTSPECIMENS10. Apparatus10.1 DieThe shape and dimensions of the die for prepar-ing dumbbell specimens shall conform with those shown inFig. 2. The inside faces in the reduced section shall beperpendicular to the plane formed by the cutting edges andpolished for a distance of at least 5 mm (0.2 in.) from thecutting edge. The die shall at all times be sharp and free ofnicks (see 9.2).NOTE 4The condition of the die may be determined by investigatingthe rupture point on any series of broken (ruptured) specimens
