5 Apparatus5.1 Testing Machines—Machines used for tension testing shall conform to the requirements of Practices E 4. The forces used in determining tensile strength and yield strength shall be within the verified force application range of the testing machine as defined in Practices E 4.5.2 Gripping Devices:5.2.1 General—Various types of gripping devices may be used…
6 Apparatus6.1 Differential Scanning Calorimeter—As a minimum requirement, the thermal analysis equipment shall be capable of measuring heat flow of at least 10 mW full scale. The instrument recorder shall be capable of displaying heat flow or temperature differential on the y-axis and time on the x-axis. The time base must be accurate to 61…
4 PrincipleA pipe of specified length is placed in a liquid bath or air oven at a specified temperature for a specified time .A marked length of this portion of pipe is measured, under identical conditions, before and after heating. The reversion is calculated as a percentage of the change in length in relation to…
