Scope*1.1 These test methods are used to determine the flexural properties of unreinforced and reinforced plastics, including highmodulus composites and electrical insulating materials utilizing a three-

4、point loading system to apply a load to a simply supportedbeam (specimen). The method is generally applicable to both rigid and semi-rigid materials, but flexural strength cannot bedetermined for those materials that do not break or yield in the outer surface of the test specimen within the 5.0 % st

5、rain limit.1.2 Test specimens of rectangular cross section are injection molded or, cut from molded or extruded sheets or plates, or cutfrom molded or extruded shapes. Specimens must be solid and uniformly rectangular. The specimen rests on two supports and isloaded by means of a loading nose midway

6、 between the supports.1.3 Measure deflection in one of two ways; using crosshead position or a deflectometer. Please note that studies have shownthat deflection data obtained with a deflectometer will differ from data obtained using crosshead position. The method of deflectionmeasurement shall be re

However,more accurate measurement may be obtained by using an deflection indicator such as a deflectometer.NOTE 2Materials that do not rupture by the maximum str

8、ain allowed under this test method may be more suited to a 4-point bend test. The basicdifference between the two test methods is in the location of the maximum bending moment and maximum axial fiber stresses. The maximum axial fiberstresses occur on a line under the loading nose in 3-point bending

Summary of Test Method4.1 Atest specimen of rectangular cross section rests on two supports in a flat-wise position

21、 and is loaded by means of a loadingnose located midway between the supports. Unless testing certain laminated materials (see 7 for guidance), a support span-to-depth(of specimen) ratio 16:1 shall be used. The specimen is deflected until rupture occurs in the outer surface of the test specimen orunt

23、 states otherwise. Procedure Aemploys a strain rate of 0.01 mm/mm/min (0.01 in./in./min) and is the preferred procedure for this test method.4.3 Procedure B is designed principally for those materials that do not break or yield in the outer surface of the test specimenwithin the 5.0 % strain limit w

26、ocedureB.5. Significance and Use5.1 Flexural properties as determined by this test method are especially useful for quality control and specification purposes.They include:5.1.1 Flexural Stress (f)When a homogeneous elastic material is tested in flexure as a simple beam supported at two pointsand lo

27、aded at the midpoint, the maximum stress in the outer surface of the test specimen occurs at the midpoint. Flexural stressis calculated for any point on the load-deflection curve using equation (Eq 3) in Section 12 (see Notes 5 and 6).NOTE 5Eq 3 applies strictly to materials for which stress is line

28、arly proportional to strain up to the point of rupture and for which the strains are small.Since this is not always the case, a slight error will be introduced if Eq 3 is used to calculate stress for materials that are not true Hookean materials.The equation is valid for obtaining comparison data an

29、d for specification purposes, but only up to a maximum fiber strain of 5 % in the outer surfaceof the test specimen for specimens tested by the procedures described herein.NOTE 6When testing highly orthotropic laminates, the maximum stress may not always occur in the outer surface of the test specim

30、en.4 Laminatedbeam theory must be applied to determine the maximum tensile stress at failure. If Eq 3 is used to calculate stress, it will yield an apparent strength basedon homogeneous beam theory. This apparent strength is highly dependent on the ply-stacking sequence of highly orthotropic laminat

31、es.5.1.2 Flexural Stress for Beams Tested at Large Support Spans (f)If support span-to-depth ratios greater than 16 to 1 are usedsuch that deflections in excess of 10 % of the support span occur, the stress in the outer surface of the specimen for a simple beamis reasonably approximated using equati

32、on (Eq 4) in 12.3 (see Note 7).NOTE 7When large support span-to-depth ratios are used, significant end forces are developed at the support noses which will affect the moment ina simple supported beam. Eq 4 includes additional terms that are an approximate correction factor for the influence of these

35、pecimen (see Note 6) during a bending test. Itis calculated according to Eq 3 or Eq 4. Some materials that do not break at strains of up to 5 % give a load deflection curve thatshows a point at which the load does not increase with an increase in strain, that is, a yield point (Fig. 1, Curve b), Y.

36、The flexuralstrength is calculated for these materials by letting P (in Eq 3 or Eq 4) equal this point, Y.5.1.4 Flexural Offset Yield StrengthOffset yield strength is the stress at which the stress-strain curve deviates by a given strain(offset) from the tangent to the initial straight line portion

37、of the stress-strain curve. The value of the offset must be given wheneverthis property is calculated.NOTE 8Flexural Offset Yield Strength may differ from flexural strength defined in 5.1.3. Both methods of calculation are described in the annex toTest Method D638.5.1.5 Flexural Stress at Break (fB)

38、Flexural stress at break of the test specimen during a bending test. It is calculated accordingto Eq 3 or Eq 4. Some materials give a load deflection curve that shows a break point, B, without a yield point (Fig. 1, Curve a)in which case fB = fM. Other materials give a yield deflection curve with bo

39、th a yield and a break point, B (Fig. 1, Curve b).The flexural stress at break is calculated for these materials by letting P (in Eq 3 or Eq 4) equal this point, B.5.1.6 Stress at a Given StrainThe stress in the outer surface of a test specimen at a given strain is calculated in accordancewith Eq 3

40、or Eq 4 by letting P equal the load read from the load-deflection curve at the deflection corresponding to the desiredstrain (for highly orthotropic laminates, see Note 6).5.1.7 Flexural Strain, fNominal fractional change in the length of an element of the outer surface of the test specimen atmidspa

Flexural strain is calculated for any deflection using Eq 5 in 12.4.5.1.8 Modulus of Elasticity:5.1.8.1 Tangent Modulus of ElasticityThe tangent modulus of elasticity, often called the “modulus of elasticity,” is the ratio,within the elastic limit, of stress to co

42、rresponding strain. It is calculated by drawing a tangent to the steepest initial straight-lineportion of the load-deflection curve and using Eq 6 in 12.5.1 (for highly anisotropic composites, see Note 159).NOTE 9Shear deflections can seriously reduce the apparent modulus of highly anisotropic compo

43、sites when they are tested at low span-to-depthratios.4 For this reason, a span-to-depth ratio of 60 to 1 is recommended for flexural modulus determinations on these composites. Flexural strength shouldbe determined on a separate set of replicate specimens at a lower span-to-depth ratio that induces

44、 tensile failure in the outer fibers of the beam along itslower face. Since the flexural modulus of highly anisotropic laminates is a critical function of ply-stacking sequence, it will not necessarily correlate withtensile modulus, which is not stacking-sequence dependent.5.1.8.2 Secant ModulusThe

45、secant modulus is the ratio of stress to corresponding strain at any selected point on thestress-strain curve, that is, the slope of the straight line that joins the origin and a selected point on the actual stress-strain curve.It shall be expressed in megapascals (pounds per square inch). The selec

46、ted point is chosen at a pre-specified stress or strain inNOTE 1Curve a: Specimen that breaks before yielding.Curve b: Specimen that yields and then breaks before the 5 % strain limit.Curve c: Specimen that neither yields nor breaks before the 5 % strain limit.FIG. 1 Typical Curves of Flexural Stres

It is calculated in accordance with Eq 6 by lettingm equal the slope of the secant to the load-deflection curve. The chosen stress or strain point used for the determination of the

48、secant shall be reported.5.1.8.3 Chord Modulus (Ef)The chord modulus is calculated from two discrete points on the load deflection curve. Theselected points are to be chosen at two pre-specified stress or strain points in accordance with the appropriate material specificationor by customer contract.

49、 The chosen stress or strain points used for the determination of the chord modulus shall be reported.Calculate the chord modulus, Ef using Eq 7 in 12.5.2.5.2 Experience has shown that flexural properties vary with specimen depth, temperature, atmospheric conditions, and strainrate as specified in Procedures A and B.5.3 Before proceeding with these test methods, refer to the ASTM specification of the material being tested.
