Compressive Properties of Foam with Unloading


Test ID

M-215

Description

A compression stress strain curve test is performed a quasi-static speeds. This test is stopped at a point at the onset of densification and unloaded. The unloading stress strain is also recorded.

Options

For additional costs this test can be performed at non-ambient temperatures.

Standards

  • ASTM D695

Data

Compressive Modulus, Compressive Strain at Yield, Compressive Strength at Yield, Compressive Ultimate Strength, Engineering Compressive Stress-Strain Curves, Offset Yield Strain in Compression, Offset Yield Stress in Compression, Strain at Ultimate. This data appears in Matereality as Compressive Properties.

Replicates

Number of times this test is repeated: 5

Samples

6 discs (50mm diam.) [details]

Application

This test is useful for determining the damage of foam materials when subjected to impact loading and unloading.
