Plastics - Determination of tensile properties - Part 1: General principles (ISO 527-1:2019)

This document specifies the general principles for determining the tensile properties of plastics and plastic composites under defined conditions. Several different types of test specimen are defined to suit different types of material which are detailed in subsequent parts of ISO 527. The methods are used to investigate the tensile behaviour of the test specimens and for determining the tensile strength, tensile modulus and other aspects of the tensile stress/strain relationship under the conditions defined. The methods are selectively suitable for use with the following materials: - rigid and semi-rigid moulding, extrusion and cast thermoplastic materials, including filled and reinforced compounds in addition to unfilled types; rigid and semi-rigid thermoplastics sheets and films; - rigid and semi-rigid thermosetting moulding materials, including filled and reinforced compounds; rigid and semi-rigid thermosetting sheets, including laminates; - fibre-reinforced thermosets and thermoplastic composites incorporating unidirectional or non-unidirectional reinforcements, such as mat, woven fabrics, woven rovings, chopped strands, combination and hybrid reinforcement, rovings and milled fibres; sheet made from pre-impregnated materials (prepregs); - thermotropic liquid crystal polymers. The methods are not normally suitable for use with rigid cellular materials, for which ISO 1926 is used, or for sandwich structures containing cellular materials.

Kunststoffe - Bestimmung der Zugeigenschaften - Teil 1: Allgemeine Grundsätze (ISO 527-1:2019)

1.1 Dieses Dokument legt die allgemeinen Grundsätze zur Bestimmung der Zugeigenschaften von Kunst-stoffen und Kunststoff-Verbundwerkstoffen unter festgelegten Bedingungen fest. Mehrere verschiedene Probekörpertypen sind für unterschiedliche Werkstoffarten festgelegt, die in den folgenden Teilen von ISO 527 näher beschrieben werden.
1.2 Die Verfahren werden verwendet, um das Zugverformungsverhalten von Probekörpern zu untersu-chen und die Zugfestigkeit, den Zugmodul und andere Gesichtspunkte der Zugspannungs-/Dehnungs-Bezie-hung unter festgelegten Bedingungen zu ermitteln.
1.3 Die Verfahren sind speziell zur Anwendung bei folgenden Werkstoffgruppen geeignet:
- steife und halbsteife thermoplastische Spritzguss-, Extrusions- und Gussformmassen, einschließlich gefüllter und verstärkter Verbunde als Ergänzung zu ungefüllten Sorten; steife und halbsteife thermo-plastische Platten und Folien;
- steife und halbsteife duroplastische Formmassen, einschließlich gefüllter und verstärkter Verbunde; steife und halbsteife duroplastische Platten einschließlich Schichtstoffe;
- faserverstärkte duroplastische und thermoplastische Verbundwerkstoffe mit unidirektionaler oder nichtunidirektionaler Verstärkung, wie Matten, Vliese und Gelege, Gewebe, Rovinggewebe, Kombina-tions- und Mischverstärkung, Stränge (Rovings) und Kurzfasern; Tafeln aus vorgetränkten Werkstoffen (Prepregs);
- thermotrope flüssigkristalline Polymere.
Die Verfahren sind üblicherweise nicht zur Anwendung mit harten Schaumstoffen, für die ISO 1926 ange-wendet wird, oder für Schichtstoff-Verbundwerkstoffe mit Schaumstoffkern geeignet.

1.1    Le présent document spécifie les principes généraux pour la détermination des propriétés en traction des plastiques et des composites en plastique dans des conditions définies. Plusieurs types différents d'éprouvettes sont définis en fonction des différents types de matériaux qui sont énumérés dans les parties suivantes de I'ISO 527.
1.2    Les méthodes sont utilisées pour étudier le comportement en traction des éprouvettes par la détermination de la résistance en traction, du module d'élasticité en traction et d'autres aspects de la relation contrainte/déformation en traction dans des conditions définies.
1.3    Les méthodes conviennent sélectivement aux matériaux suivants:
—          matières thermoplastiques rigides et semi-rigides pour moulage, extrusion et coulée, y compris les compositions chargées et renforcées en plus des types non chargés; feuilles et films en thermoplastiques rigides et semi-rigides;
—          matières thermodurcissables rigides et semi-rigides pour moulage, y compris les compositions chargées et renforcées; feuilles thermodurcissables rigides et semi-rigides, y compris les stratifiés;

En principe, les méthodes ne peuvent pas être appliquées aux matériaux alvéolaires rigides, pour lesquels l'ISO 1926 est utilisée, ou aux structures sandwichs contenant des matériaux alvéolaires.

Polimerni materiali - Ugotavljanje nateznih lastnosti - 1. del: Splošna načela (ISO 527-1:2019)

Ta dokument določa splošna načela za ugotavljanje nateznih lastnosti polimernih materialov in polimernih kompozitov pri določenih pogojih. Opredeljenih je več vrst preskušancev, da se zajamejo različne vrste materialov, ki so podrobno opisane v poznejših delih standarda ISO 527. Uporabljene so metode za preučevanje nateznih lastnosti preskušancev ter za ugotavljanje natezne trdnosti, nateznega modula in drugih vidikov razmerja natezna napetost/deformacija pri določenih pogojih. Metode so selektivno ustrezne za naslednje materiale:  – trdi in poltrdi plastomerni materiali za oblikovanje, ekstrudiranje in vlivanje, vključno s polnjenimi in ojačanimi spojinami poleg nepolnjenih vrst; trdi in poltrdi plastomerni trakovi in filmi; – trdi in poltrdi termoreaktivni materiali za oblikovanje, vključno s polnjenimi in ojačanimi spojinami; trdi in poltrdi termoreaktivni trakovi, vključno z laminati; – z vlakni ojačani termoreaktivni in plastomerni kompoziti, ki vsebujejo enosmerne ali večsmerne ojačitve, kot so mati, tkanine, tkani rovingi, rezane niti, kombinacijske in hibridne ojačitve, rovingi in brušena vlakna; trakovi iz predhodno impregniranih materialov; – termotropni polimeri iz tekočih kristalov. Metode običajno niso primerne za trde penjene materiale, za katere se uporablja standard ISO 1926, ali za strukture tipa »sendvič«, ki vsebujejo penjene materiale.

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out
through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical
committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International
organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.
ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of
electrotechnical standardization.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular the different approval criteria needed for the
different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the
editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www .iso .org/directives).
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of
patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. Details of
any patent rights identified during the development of the document will be in the Introduction and/or
on the ISO list of patent declarations received (see www .iso .org/patents).
Any trade name used in this document is information given for the convenience of users and does not
constitute an endorsement.

expressions related to conformity assessment, as well as information about ISO's adherence to the
World Trade Organization (WTO) principles in the Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) see the following
URL: www .iso .org/iso/foreword .html.
This document was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 61, Plastics, Subcommittee SC 2,
Mechanical properties.
This third edition cancels and replaces the second edition (ISO 527-1:2012), which has been technically
revised.
The main changes compared to the previous edition are as follows:
— an error in Figure 1 concerning ε has been removed;
tM
— the inconsistency concerning the accuracy of the elongation used in the calculation of the tensile
modulus between 5.1.5.1, Figure 1 and Annex C has been removed. For gauge lengths L ≤ 50 mm,
0
the accuracy is set to ±1 µm;
— the normative references (see Clause 2) have been updated;
— minor editorial changes have been applied;
— language has been clarified.

Plastics — Determination of tensile properties —
Part 1:
General principles
1 Scope
1.1 This part of ISO 527 specifies the general principles for determining the tensile properties of
plastics and plastic composites under defined conditions. Several different types of test specimen are
defined to suit different types of material which are detailed in subsequent parts of ISO 527.
1.2 The methods are used to investigate the tensile behaviour of the test specimens and for determining
the tensile strength, tensile modulus and other aspects of the tensile stress/strain relationship under the
conditions defined.
1.3 The methods are selectively suitable for use with the following materials:
— rigid and semi-rigid (see 3.12 and 3.13, respectively) moulding, extrusion and cast thermoplastic
materials, including filled and reinforced compounds in addition to unfilled types; rigid and semi-
rigid thermoplastics sheets and films;
— rigid and semi-rigid thermosetting moulding materials, including filled and reinforced compounds;
rigid and semi-rigid thermosetting sheets, including laminates;
— fibre-reinforced thermosets and thermoplastic composites incorporating unidirectional or non-
unidirectional reinforcements, such as mat, woven fabrics, woven rovings, chopped strands,
combination and hybrid reinforcement, rovings and milled fibres; sheet made from pre-impregnated
materials (prepregs),
— thermotropic liquid crystal polymers.
The methods are not normally suitable for use with rigid cellular materials, for which ISO 1926 is used,
or for sandwich structures containing cellular materials.

4 Principle and methods
4.1 Principle
The test specimen is extended along its major longitudinal axis at a constant speed until the specimen
fractures or until the stress (load) or the strain (elongation) reaches some predetermined value. During
this procedure, the load sustained by the specimen and the elongation are measured.
4.2 Method
4.1 The methods are applied using specimens which may be either moulded to the chosen dimensions
or machined, cut or punched from finished and semi-finished products, such as mouldings, laminates,
films and extruded or cast sheet. The types of test specimen and their preparation are described in the
relevant part of ISO 527 typical for the material. In some cases, a multipurpose test specimen may be
used. Multipurpose and miniaturized test specimens are described in ISO 20753.
4.2 The methods specify preferred dimensions for the test specimens. Tests which are carried out
on specimens of different dimensions, or on specimens which are prepared under different conditions,
may produce results which are not comparable. Other factors, such as the speed of testing and the
conditioning of the specimens, can also influence the results. Consequently, when comparative data are
required, these factors shall be carefully controlled and recorded.
5 Apparatus
5.1 Testing machine
5.1.1 General
The machine shall comply with ISO 7500-1 and ISO 9513, and meet the specifications given in 5.1.2 to
5.1.6, as follows.
5.1.2 Test speeds
The tensile-testing machine shall be capable of maintaining the test speeds as specified in Table 1.
5.1.3 Grips
Grips for holding the test specimen shall be attached to the machine so that the major axis of the test
specimen coincides with the direction of extension through the centre line of the grip assembly. The
test specimen shall be held such that slip relative to the gripping jaws is prevented. The gripping system
shall not cause premature fracture at the jaws or squashing of the specimen in the grips.
For the determination of the tensile modulus, it is essential that the strain rate is constant and does not
change, for example, due to motion in the grips. This is important especially if wedge action grips are used.
NOTE For the prestress, which might be necessary to obtain correct alignment (see 9.3) and specimen
seating and to avoid a toe region at the start of the stress/strain diagram, see 9.4.

The force measurement system shall comply with class 1 as defined in ISO 7500-1.
5.1.5 Strain indicator
5.1.5.1 Extensometers
Contact extensometers shall comply with ISO 9513, class 1. The accuracy of this class shall be attained
in the strain range over which measurements are being made. Non-contact extensometers may also be
used, provided they meet the same accuracy requirements.
The extensometer shall be capable of determining the change in the gauge length of the test specimen at
any time during the test. It is desirable, but not essential, that the instrument should record this change
automatically. The instrument shall be essentially free of inertia lag at the specified speed of testing.
For the determination of elastic modulus, the instrument shall be capable of measuring the change in
the gauge length of the specimen with an accuracy of 1 % of the relevant value or better for all gauge
lengths of 50 mm or higher, corresponding to a requirement of absolute accuracy of ±1 μm for a gauge
length of 50 mm and to ±1,5 μm, in case a gauge length of 75 mm is used.
For smaller gauge lengths between 20 and 50 mm an absolute accuracy of ±1 μm is sufficient (see
Figure 2 and Annex C.)
NOTE Depending on the gauge length used, the accuracy requirement of 1 % translates to different
absolute accuracies for the determination of the elongation within the gauge length. Modulus measurements on
miniaturized specimens are for different dimensional and material related reasons less accurate. The constant
absolute accuracy for the measurement of change in gage length leads to relative accuracies of 2 % for gauge
length 25 mm and of 2.5 % for gage length 20 mm (see Figure 2).
Commonly used optical extensometers record the deformation taken at one broad test-specimen
surface: In the case of such a single-sided strain-testing method, ensure that low strains are not
falsified by bending, which may result from even
