Creep tests
These tests are carried out under
constant static load. Typical results
in individual tests are strain-time
curves and creep modulus-time
curves. Multiple tests can be used
to generate isochronic stress-strain
curves or fracture curves.

Rubber
Creep test
Creep tests are used to determine
the long-term behavior of sections
of pipes under radial loading or in a
flexure arrangement. A test duration
of 42 days is usual; in individual cases much longer creep tests are also
performed. Results include creep behavior and creep modulus.
Fig. 2: Special displacement transducers are available for pipes up to 630 mm diameter
Plastics
Fig. 1: Measuring ring stiffness, ISO 9969: ring deformation is measured on the internal diameter
Tensile test
To enable characterization of the
pipe material, dumbbell specimens
are machined from the pipe wall and
subjected to tensile tests.
Standards
Fig. 4: Tensile test to ISO 9969: specimen shapes depend on wall thickness
Tensile tests
Films and sheets up to 1mm thick
are tested using strips or dumbbell
specimens. With strips the material
elongation is usually nominal and is
therefore determined via the travel
of the pulling clamp; direct-measuring optical extensometers are used
for dumbbell specimens.
Puncture tests
For packaging, loads applied by
hard, pointed or angular objects are
an important factor. The puncture
test to EN 14477 measures this
behavior using a 0.8 mm-diameter
point. This is also known as the
Parker pen test. A similar test is
described in ASTM F1306; in this
case the indenter is a ball 35 mm in
diameter.
Tear-growth tests
Tear-growth strength refers to the
resistance of a material to the propagation of a tear. The test arrangement is similar to that used for the
tensile test, while the specimen is
is of the graves or angle type with a
defined crack.
Separation of layers
With multi-layer films it is important to know the ply adhesion. To
measure this, ply separation tests,
mostly in the form of 180 separation tests, are carried out.
Determination of friction
coefficients
Static and dynamicfriction coefficients of flexible films can easily
be measured on a static testing
machine using a supplementary
device. This test is defined in many
standards.

Tear test
This test is used to determine the tear
resistance of foams. In contrast to
the same type of tests in the field of
rubber, specimen is charged in crackopening mode, also known as mode I.
Plastics
Tensile test
Tensile properties are determined on
a dumbbell specimen. Strain can be
measured using low inertia and friction
type mechanical extensometers or
with optical extensometers.

Tear tests
This test characterizes the behavior
of a notched, i.e. damaged material.
Three different specimen types are
available:
trouser-type specimen
angle-type specimen
crescend-type specimen.
Compression tests
This test is used to determine compression moduli. The specimen is
cyclically loaded four times in accordance with ISO 7743. During the
fourth loading cycle compression
moduli are determined at specified
reference points.
Compression set
This is an important property where
seals are concerned. It is determined by measuring the thickness loss
which occurs under a specified deformation, possibly at higher temperature, after a defined period.
16
Shear tests
Shear characteristics are usually
measured via double-lap shear, sometimes also in quadruple shear,
in which four rubber blocks are
sheared. The shear modulus is
measured after multiple cyclic loading.
Rebound resilience
This dynamic property is measured
using a Schob pendulum.
Viscoelastic properties
The specimen is loaded by means of
forced vibrations. The storage modulus and loss modulus are determined
from the resulting force signal. The
test may be performed over a wide
frequency range (frequency sweep)
and over a wide temperature range.
Standards
Hardness
Measurements on rubber are usually
performed as per IRHD or Shore A;
in special cases the Pusey & Jones
method is used.
Plastics
Abrasion test
This is a comparative test.
First the abrasion is determined on a
standard reference elastomer under
specified conditions by weighing.
The result for the rubber being tested
is then stated in relation to the reference elastomer.

Notching
Manual and motorized notching
instruments are available for impact

Manual notching plane
Manual, but very convenient. The
manual notching plane produces
good notch results and is designed
for average specimen volumes. Four
specimens are notched per pass.
ZNO automatic notch-cutting
machine
The motor-driven notch-cutting machine produces notches using a single-tooth milling cutter. Depending on
specimen thickness, 12 specimens
may be milled simultaneously. The
quality of the notches is optimized for
each material by separate adjustment
of the feed rate and cutting speed.

Instrumentation
Force and travel sensors plus fast
measured-value acquisition are
used to determine the force-traveltime gradient. The system records
the measured-value curve and the
characteristic values, enabling fracture mechanics investigations to
be carried out or a simple toughbrittle transition identified.
Plastics
Low-vibration pendulums
As well as increasing the stiffness
of the pendulum in the impact direction, the use of double pendulum rods made of pultruded CFRP
concentrates the mass better at the
impact point compared to metal
pendulums, minimizing energy losses due to natural vibrations.
