ASTM D 4762 Document Information:
Title
Standard Guide for Testing Polymer Matrix Composite Materials
ASTM International
Publication Date:
May 1, 2004
Scope:
This guide summarizes the application of ASTM standard test methods
(and other supporting
standards) to continuous-fiber reinforced polymer matrix composite
materials. The most commonly
used or most applicable ASTM standards are included, emphasizing use
of standards of Committee D30
on Composite Materials.
This guide does not cover all possible standards that could apply to
polymer matrix composites and
restricts discussion to the documented scope. Commonly used but
non-standard industry extensions of
test method scopes, such as application of static test methods to
fatigue testing, are not
discussed. A more complete summary of general composite testing
standards, including non-ASTM test
methods, is included in the Composite Materials Handbook
(MIL-HDBK-17).(Footnote 2) Additional
specific recommendations for testing textile (fabric, braided)
composites are contained in Guide D
6856.
This guide does not specify a system of measurement; the systems
specified within each of the
referenced standards shall apply as appropriate. Note that the
referenced standards of ASTM
Committee D30 are either SI-only or combined-unit standards with SI
units listed first.
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.
