Dimension measurement
Accurate dimension measurement is needed to obtain accurate
results. ISO 16012 applies for plastics, ISO 23529 for rubber.
An error of 0.1 mm in
thickness measurement
corresponds to an error
of 2.5 % !

Pre-stresses
Pre-stresses that may for example occur during the clamping process shall
be avoided, i.e. by using the force constant hold function of testXpert II.

Pre-stress, pre-load
Small positive pre-stresses (0) are necessary to avoid a toe region
at the start of the stress/strain diagram.

Test speeds
Parallel clamping ensures the correct deformation speed being respected.
The speed for modulus determination shall be set in a way to achieve a strain rate of 1 %/min by
using one of the speeds from table 1 in ISO 527 part 1.
A crosshead speed of 1 mm/min calculates to a deformation speed of 0.87 %/min. (Std. specimen)
Self tightening grips lead to low deformation speeds, pre-stressed grips lead to speed variations

Tensile - modulus
The tensile modulus has to be calculated between two strains.
It is the slope in the stress-strain diagram between 0.05% and 0.25% strain

Tensile - modulus
Modulus measurement requires for a highly accurate extensometer
Extension measurement for modulus determinations
Requirements to ISO 527-1, 5.1.5.1 :
Since the modulus of elasticity is normally taken on the larger
specimen types 1A or 1B, the accuracy requirement for the
extensometer is 1,5 m for type 1A and 1,0 m for type 1B.
The minimum requirement in terms of resolution, referencing to
ISO 9513, lies therefore at 0.5 microns.
For smaller specimens with smaller gage lengths the requirements
become higher.

Tensile
Once the modulus determination is completed, the speed has to be
changed. Typical speeds are 5 mm/min or 50 mm/min.
ISO 527-1 now clearly allows a speed change after modulus determination ( 9.6)
Tensile modulus and further tests results can be determined from one single specimen
It is preferable to unload the specimen before testing at a different speed, but it is also acceptable
to change the speed without unloading.

Nominal strain
The solution is the use of nominal strain. ISO 527-1 defines two
ways of measuring nominal strain.
Method A
Used in ISO 527 since 1993
Method B
New method in ISO 527
Strain:
= L0 / L0
Nominal Strain: t = LT / L
Strain at yield:
y = Ly / L0
Strain:
t = y+ LT / L
