Summary of Test Method4.1 A materials surface hardness is determined through theuse of a Barcol Impressor. The relative depth of penetration ofthe Impressors inde

The Model No. 934-1 and Model No.935 Barcol Impressors are designated for use with plastics.Within the range of hardness measured by these Impressors theModel No. 934-1 is used for measuring harder materials andthe Model No. 935 is used f

Apparatus ( Fig. 1

13、and Fig. 2)6.1 Indentor3The indentor shall consist of a hardenedsteel truncated cone having an angle of 26 with a flat tip of0.157 mm 0.0062 in. in diameter. It shall fit into a hollowspindle and be held down by a spring-loaded plunger. See Fig.2.6.2 Indicating DeviceThe indicating dial shall have 1

The higher the reading is, the harder the materialis.6.3 Calibration Standards“Hard” and “soft” aluminumalloy disks supplied by the manufacturer of the instrument.Other disks should not be used, even if they are of the sameal

15、loy and temper as the manufacturers disks, as the hardnessof aluminum varies within any given alloy-temper parameter.6.4 A smooth glass plate is also needed.7. Test Specimens7.1 The testing area shall be smooth and free from mechani-cal defects.7.2 DimensionsTest specimens shall be at least 1.5 mm11

16、6 in. thick and large enough to ensure a minimum distanceof3mm18 in. in any direction from the indentor point to theedge of the specimen, as well as from test point to test point.8. Preparation and Operation of Apparatus8.1 The preparation and operation of Models 934-1 and 935are identical. Place th

17、e Impressor and the material to be tested(or the calibration disk) on a solidly supported, flat, hard, firmsurface such as stone, metal, or ceramic. If softer supportingsurfaces are used, a false low instrument reading may occur.8.2 Set the point sleeve on the surface to be tested. Set thelegs on th

18、e same surface or on solid material of the samethickness, so that the indentor is perpendicular to the surfacebeing tested. Grasp the instrument firmly between the legs andpoint sleeve. Apply a uniform downward force quickly, byhand, increasing the force on the case until the dial indicationreaches

19、a maximum (Note 3). Take care to avoid sliding orscraping while the indentor is in contact with the surface beingtested. Record the maximum reading.NOTE 2It is recommended that measurements be made with theModel 934-1 Impressor when values above 90 are obtained with theModel 935 Impressor and that m

20、easurements be made with the Model 935Impressor when values less than 20 are obtained with the Model No.934-1 Impressor. Values below 10 using the Model 935 Impressor areinexact and should not be reported.NOTE 3Drift in readings from the maximum occurs in some materialsand can be nonlinear with time

21、.9. Calibration9.1 With the plunger upper guide backed out until it justengages the spring, place the Impressor on a glass surface andpress down until the point is forced all the way back into thelower plunger guide. The indicator should now read 100. If itdoes not, loosen the lock-nut and turn the

22、lower plunger guidein or out to obtain a 100 reading. Next, read the “hard”aluminum alloy disk supplied by the manufacturer of theImpressor and, if necessary, adjust so that the reading is withinthe range marked on the disk. Then do the same with the “soft”disk. If these readings cannot be obtained,

23、 subsequent mea-surements are not valid.10.

27、on the specimens to be tested (Note 4). Indentationsshould not be made within 3 mm 18 in. of the edge of thespecimen or of other indentations.NOTE 4Curved surfaces are more difficult to support. When the loadis applied, bending and spring action in the specimen should be avoided.12. Number of Readin

28、gs12.1 Application of the Barcol Impressor to reinforcedplastic (nonhomogeneous) materials will produce greater varia-tion in hardness readings than on nonreinforced (homoge-neous) materials. This greater variation is mainly caused by thedifference in hardness between resin and filler materials inco

29、ntact with the small diameter indentor. There is less variationin hardness readings on harder materials in the range of 50Barcol and higher and considerably more variation in thereadings of softer materials. On homogeneous materials, fivereadings are needed to maintain a variance-of-average of 0.28a

30、t a 60 Barcol reading; for the same variance-of-average at 30Barcol, eight readings are needed. On reinforced plastics, inorder to maintain a variance-of-average of 0.78 at 60 Barcol,ten readings are needed; and 29 readings are needed for thesame variance at the 30 Barcol level (Table 1).NOTE 5These

31、 findings were obtained with a round robin conducted ina workshop with all participants present. Eight plastic materials ofdifferent hardness were evaluated with six different Barcol (934-1)Impressors.13.
