Title
Standard Test Method for Compressive Properties of Polymer Matrix Composite Materials with Unsupported Gage Section by Shear Loading
ASTM International
Publication Date:
Jun 10, 2003
Scope:
This test method determines the in-plane compressive properties of
polymer matrix composite
materials reinforced by high-modulus fibers. The composite material
forms are limited to
continuous-fiber or discontinuous-fiber reinforced composites for
which the elastic properties are
specially orthotropic with respect to the test direction. This test
procedure introduces the
compressive force into the specimen through shear at wedge grip
interfaces. This type of force
transfer differs from the procedure in Test Method D 695 where
compressive force is transmitted
into the specimen by end-loading, Test Method D 6641/D 6641M where
compressive force is transmitted
by combined shear and end loading, and Test Method D 5467/D 5467M
where compressive force is
transmitted by subjecting a honeycomb core sandwich beam with thin
skins to four-point bending.
This test method is applicable to composites made from unidirectional
tape, wet-tow placement,
textile (for example, fabric), short fibers, or similar product forms.
Some product forms may
require deviations from the test method.
The values stated in either SI units or inch-pound units are to be
regarded separately as standard.
Within the text the inch-pounds units are shown in brackets. The
values stated in each system are
not exact equivalents; therefore, each system must be used
independently of the other. Combining
values from the two systems may result in nonconformance with the
standard.
NOTE 1 - Additional procedures for determining compressive properties
of resin-matrix composites
may be found in Test Methods D 695, D 5467/D 5467M, and D 6641/D
6641M.
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.
