IMPACT STRENGTHA1.1 General DescriptionA1.1.1 This test method covers the determination of theimpact resistance of Ultra-High Molecular Weight Polyethyl-ene (UHMWPE) which is extremely impact resistant. Whentested according to Test Method D256, Method

44、 A, UHMWPEgenerally gives a non-break type for failure, rendering the testresult invalid. This test method specifies the same type ofpendulum impact test machine as given in Test Method D256but introduces a much higher degree of stress concentrationinto the specimen by double notching with a razor b

45、lade. It isadvised that the user be familiar with Test Method D256 beforeattempting to use this test method.A1.2. ApparatusA1.2.1 The Izod type impact machine which conforms tothe requirements of Test Method D256, including the calibra-tion and checking methods, shall be used.A1.3. Test SpecimenA1.3

46、.1 The geometry and dimensions of the specimen aregiven in Fig. A1.1.A1.3.2 The specimens shall be made from the fabricatedform.A1.3.3 Each specimen shall be free of twist and shall bebounded by mutually perpendicular pairs of plane parallelsurfaces, free from scratches, pits, and sink marks.A1.4 No

47、tching of SpecimensA1.4.1 In the case of compression molding, the two notches(or width of two notches) shall be perpendicular to thedirection of application of molding pressure; if applicable. Theimpact resistance of a plastic material may be different if thenotch is perpendicular to, rather than pa

49、 a 0.25mm (0.010 in.) thick single edge razor blade with a 15included angle at the cutting edge. The notching speed shall beless than 508 mm/min. (20 in./min.).Anew blade shall be usedafter notching 40 specimens.A1.4.3 The calibration of the notching machine shall bechecked by direct measurement of the notch depth,perpendicularity, and offset of the two notches.
