A superscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This test method determines the compressive strength

3、and stiffness properties of polymer matrix composite materialsusing a combined loading compression (CLC) (1)2test fixture.This test method is applicable to general composites that arebalanced and symmetric. The specimen may be untabbed(Procedure A) or tabbed (Procedure B), as required. Onerequiremen

4、t for a successful test is that the specimen ends donot crush during the test. Untabbed specimens are usuallysuitable for use with materials of low orthotropy, for example,fabrics, chopped fiber composites, and laminates with a maxi-mum of 50 % 0 plies, or equivalent (see 6.4). Materials ofhigher or

5、thotropy, including unidirectional composites, typi-cally require tabs.1.2 The compressive force is introduced into the specimenby combined end- and shear-loading. In comparison, TestMethod D 3410/D 3410M is a pure shear-loading compressiontest method and Test Method D 695 is a pure end-loading test

6、method.1.3 Unidirectional (0 ply orientation) composites as well asmulti-directional composite laminates, fabric composites,chopped fiber composites, and similar materials can be tested.1.4 The values stated in either SI units or inch-pound unitsare to be regarded separately as standard. Within the

7、test theinch-pound units are shown in brackets. The values stated ineach system are not exact equivalents; therefore, each systemmust be used independently of the other. Combining valuesfrom the two systems may result in nonconformance with thestandard.NOTE 1Additional procedures for determining the

8、 compressive prop-erties of polymer matrix composites may be found in Test MethodsD 3410/D 3410M, D 5467, and D 695.1.5 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use.

Summary of Test Method4.1 A test fixture such as that shown in Figs. 1 and 2,oranycomparable fixture, can be used to test the untabbed (Procedure

22、A) or tabbed (Procedure B) straight-sided composite specimenof rectangular cross section shown schematically in Fig. 3.Atypical specimen is 140 mm 5.5 in. long and 13 mm 0.5 in.wide, having an unsupported (gage) length of 13 mm 0.5 in.when installed in the fixture. A gage length greater or less than

23、13 mm is acceptable, subject to specimen buckling consider-ations (see 8.2). The 13-mm 0.5 in. gage length providessufficient space to install bonded strain gages when they arerequired. The fixture, which subjects the specimen to combinedend- and shear-loading, is itself loaded in compression betwee

Load-strain data arecollected until failure occurs (or until a specified strain level isachieved if only compressive modulus or Poissons ratio, orboth, are to be determined, and not the complete stress-straincurve to failure).5. Significance and Use5.1 T

25、his test method is designed to produce compressiveproperty data for material specifications, research and devel-opment, quality assurance, and structural design and analysis.When tabbed (Procedure B) specimens, typically unidirec-tional composites, are tested, the CLC test method (combinedshear end

26、loading) has similarities to Test Methods D 3410/D 3410M (shear loading) and D 695 (end loading).

It may not be possibleto successfully test untabbed specimens of these same materi-als using either of

28、 the other two methods. When specificlaminates are tested (primarily of the 90/0nsfamily, althoughother laminates containing at least one 0 ply can be used), theCLC data are frequently used to “back out” 0 ply strength,using lamination theory to calculate a 0 unidirectional laminastrength (1, 2). Fa

29、ctors that influence the compressive responseinclude: type of material, methods of material preparation andlay-up, specimen stacking sequence, specimen preparation,specimen conditioning, environment of testing, speed of test-ing, time at temperature, void content, and volume percentreinforcement. Co

30、mposite properties in the test direction thatmay be obtained from this test method include:5.1.1 Ultimate compressive strength,5.1.2 Ultimate compressive strain,5.1.3 Compressive (linear or chord) modulus of elasticity,and5.1.4 Poissons ratio in compression.6. Interferences6.1 Because of partial end

31、 loading of the specimen in thistest method, it is important that the ends of the specimen bemachined flat, parallel to each other, and perpendicular to thelong axis of the coupon (see Fig. 3), just as for Test MethodD 695. Improper preparation may result in premature endcrushing of the specimen dur

32、ing loading, excessive inducedbending, or buckling, potentially invalidating the test.6.2 Erroneously low laminate compressive strengths will beproduced as a result of Euler column buckling if the specimenis too thin in relation to the gage length (see 8.2). In such cases,the specimen thickness must

33、 be increased or the gage lengthreduced. A practical limit on reducing gage length is maintain-ing adequate space in which to attach strain gages, if required.A gage length of at least about 9 mm 0.35 in. is typicallyrequired for this purpose. Bending or buckling, or both, canusually only be detecte

34、d by the use of back-to-back straingages mounted on the faces of the specimen (3). Bending andNote: Using standard M631(14-28 UNF) screws, the bolt torque required to test most composite material specimens successfully is typically between 2.5 and 3.0 N-m20 and 25 in.-lb.FIG. 2 Dimensioned Sketch of

Which failure modes are deemedaccep

36、table will be governed by the particular material, con-figuration, and application (see 12.1).6.4 Untabbed (Procedure A) specimens of continuous-fiber-reinforced laminates having more than 50 % axially oriented(0) plies may require higher than acceptable fixture clampingforces to prevent end crushin

37、g. Excessive clamping forcesinduce at the ends of the gage section local stress concentra-tions that may produce erroneously low strength results (see11.2.7). In such cases, the specimen must be tabbed (ProcedureB).6.5 If the outermost plies of a laminate are oriented at 0,the local stress concentra

38、tions at the ends of the specimen gagesection may lead to premature failure of these primary load-bearing plies, producing erroneously low laminate strengthresults. This is particularly true for specimens with lownumbers of plies, since then the outer plies represent asignificant fraction of the tot

39、al number of plies (1).6.6 The compressive strength and stiffness properties ofunidirectional composites as well as all laminate configurationsmay be determined using this test method, subject to somelimitations (1). One limitation is that the fixture clampingforces induced by the applied bolt torqu

40、es required to success-fully fail the composite before specimen end crushing must notinduce significant stress concentrations at the ends of the gagesection (4). Such stress concentrations will degrade the mea-sured compressive strength. For example, testing an untabbedhigh-strength unidirectional c

41、omposite is likely to be unsuc-cessful because of the excessive clamping forces required toprevent specimen end crushing, whereas a lower strengthunidirectional composite may be successfully tested usingacceptable clamping forces. The use of a tabbed specimen toincrease the bearing area at the speci

42、men ends is then necesary(1, 5). An untabbed thickness-tapered specimen, althoughnonstandard, has also been used to successfully test high-strength unidirectional composites (5).6.7 In multidirectional laminates, edge effects can affect themeasured strength and modulus of the laminate.7.
