Title
Standard Test Method for Tensile Properties of Thin Plastic Sheeting
ASTM International
Publication Date:
Jan 1, 2009
Scope:
This test method covers the determination of tensile properties
of plastics in the form of thin sheeting, including film (less than
1.0 mm (0.04 in.) in thickness).
NOTE 1—Film has been arbitrarily defined as sheeting having
nominal thickness not greater than 0.25 mm (0.010 in.).
NOTE 2—Tensile properties of plastics 1.0 mm (0.04 in.) or
greater in thickness shall be determined according to Test Method D
638.
This test method may be used to test all plastics within the
thickness range described and the capacity of the machine
employed.
Static Weighing, Constant-Rate-of-Grip Separation
Test—This test method employs a constant rate of separation of
the grips holding the ends of the test specimen.
Specimen extension may be measured in these test methods by grip
separation, extension indicators, or displacement of gage
marks.
A procedure for determining the tensile modulus of elasticity is
included at one strain rate.
NOTE 3—The modulus determination is generally based on the use
of grip separation as a measure of extension; however, the
desirability of using extensometers, as described in 5.2, is
recognized and provision for the use of such instrumentation is
incorporated in the procedure.
Test data obtained by this test method is relevant and
appropriate for use in engineering design.
The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as the
standard. The values in parentheses are provided for information
only.
This standard does not purport to address all of the safety
concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility
of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and
health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory
limitations prior to use.
NOTE 4—This test method is similar to ISO 527-3, but is not
considered technically equivalent. ISO 527-3 allows for additional
specimen configurations, specifies different test speeds, and
requires an extensometer or gage marks on the specimen.
