scope:

This part of ISO 11403 specifies test procedures for the acquisition and presentation of multipoint data on the following mechanical properties of plastics:

- dynamic modulus;

- tensile properties at constant test speed;

- ultimate stress and strain;

- tensile stress-strain curves;

- tensile creep;

- charpy impact strength;

- puncture impact behavior..

The test methods and test conditions apply predominantly to those plastics that can be injection- or compression-moulded or prepared as sheets of specified thickness from which specimens of the appropriate size can be machined.
