Tensile Creep With Humidity


Test ID

M-250H

Description

Tensile creep tests are performed by applying a constant tensile force over a long period of time while recording the strain in the gauge region of the tensile specimen. This test is performed in the same manner as the M-250 but with the ability to test at non-ambient humidity levels.

Options

Available from 23-80°C and 20-50 %RH.

Standards

  • ASTM D2990
  • ISO 899-1

Data

Isochronous Tensile Stress-Strain Curves, Tensile Strain v. Time. This data appears in Matereality as Tensile Creep.

Replicates

Number of times this test is repeated: 2

Samples

5 tensile bars [details]

Application

This test is used measure creep behavior of plastic in humid environments. If three stress levels are ordered, a simulation creep model can be generated.
