Solid State Compressibility (PVT)
Test ID
D-024
Description
A dried sample of approximately 1 gram is loaded into a sample cell and placed in the PVT apparatus. An isothermal heating scan is performed on the sample. Readings of volume change are recorded by an LVDT for the specified temperature range and pressures ranging from 10-200 MPa. Included in the test price is a solid density measurement, as described in test [D-010].
Options
Data may be gathered while cooling the specimen.
Standards
- DPL M-213
Data
Volumetric Strain vs. Pressure. This data appears in Matereality as Pressure-Volume-Temperature.
Replicates
Number of times this test is repeated: 1
Samples
2 parts, any shape [details]
Application
PVT solid state compressibility data is often used for FEA modeling of hyperelastic materials in situations where the part is confined.
