`140 Properties and Abbreviations
`
`DA TABOOK
`
`PROPERTIES
`
`Applies to properties in the data tables. Abbreviations have been used in the tables owing to the length of some
`terms.
`
`Processing Various abbreviations are used in the data tables to indicate the intended process route for
`individual grades of polymer (See: Abbreviations - Processing).
`
`Melt Flow, MFl Melt Flow Index is a parameter which describes the basic flow characteristics of a polymer. It
`is measured at a temperature appropriate to the polymer and under a defined load, e.g. 210°Cl5.0 kg.
`Data can be quoted without the test conditions, in these cases the numbers allow relative comparisons
`between grades. A high MFl value indicates a material suitable for moulding thin sections, whilst low
`values tend to indicate extrusion grades.
`
`for engineering applications.
`
`Density A physical characteristic of all materials quoted at 23°C. Differences in quoted densities across a
`range of like polymers may indicate the addition of fillers,
`reinforcing fibres or flame retardants.
`Variations on crystalline and amorphous microstructures can induce density differences.
`
`This parameter describes the mass increase of dry material when conditioned at
`Moisture Absorption
`50% RH. and 23°C. Absorbed moisture levels can affect processing, where less than 0.2% is usually
`required to ensure acceptable moulding surface finish. Some polymers, with high absorbed moisture
`levels, need drying before processing.
`
`Water Absorption A measurement of the mass increase of dry material when immersed in water at 23°C.
`Water absorption levels can be quoted for 24 hours immersion or until full saturation has occurred.
`
`Mould Shrinkage A measurement of the contraction of the moulded material in comparison with the original
`mould dimensions. Two values may be quoted where material flow induces anisotropy in material
`microstructure, e.g. preferential alignment of reinforcing phases. Example: 2.0/3.0 indicates 2.0 %
`shrinkage in direction of material flow, with 3.0% shrinkage transverse to mould flow direction.
`
`Tensile Modulus Also referred to as Young’s modulus or modulus of elasticity in tension. it is a measure of
`the slope of the stress against strain plot for small extensions within the region where the material is still
`demonstrating elasticity. Modulus is given in GPa.
`In the data tables values in MPa are only used for
`elastomers. Note: Manufacturers can quote modulus in MPa or N/mmz.
`
`in MPa, is the stress obtained at the point of material failure. For plastics, the
`UTS Ultimate tensile strength,
`testing speed and temperature influences the value obtained. For lower modulus plastics with high
`strain to failure, the stress at failure can be lower than the yield stress. In the data tables the highest
`stress value obtained by the test is given.
`
`YS
`
`is the stress at the yield point when the material departs from elasticity by a
`in MPa,
`Yield strength,
`specified limiting deviation from the proportionality of stress to strain. Low strain to failure plastics often
`do not have a quotable yield stress, so UTS is quoted instead.
`
`Elongation Used to describe the elongation at break or strain to failure of a material as a percentage of the
`original material length. For thermoplastics, the range can go from ~1% for a highly filled material to
`>500% for an elastomer.
`
`Flexural properties are usually measured in order to obtain a measure of stiffness or
`Flexural Modulus
`rigidity. As with tensile properties. flexural modulus, in GPa, depends on the testing temperature. The
`flexural modulus of elastomers is quoted in MPa.
`
`Flexural Strength Also known as breaking strength, the value quoted in MPa, can be either at rupture or yield
`depending on the type of material.
`
`Compressive Str Compressive strength or crushing strength,
`performance thermoplastics for engineering applications.
`
`in MPa,
`
`is occasionally quoted for the higher
`
`Shear Str Shear strength, in MPa, is occasionally quoted with the higher performance thermoplastics intended

`Properties and Abbreviations 141
`
`[5 Izod Unnotched Izod Impact Strength. The test uses a rectangular bar, which is often injection moulded.
`One end of the bar is clamped, the sample is struck by a pendulum, with the free-end fractured by the
`impact. The value obtained is the energy required to break a specified area of material,
`in kJ/mmz.
`Historically, the value can also be quoted in Joules per metre (J/m). Some flexible polymers do not
`fracture under test and in such cases a ‘No break‘ result is given. Impact properties are usually quoted
`at 23°C and at a lower temperature (between -20°C and -40°C) where a rubbery-to-brlttle transition
`could occur at a low service temperature.
`
`Notched Izod Impact Strength, The notch is either moulded into the bar, or machined (more
`N13 Izod
`reproducible). Notching a sample allows an understanding of the materials behaviour changes in
`section induce stress concentrations. Some polymers are notch sensitive. Impact properties are usually
`quoted at 23°C and at a lower temperature (between -20°C and -40°C) where a rubbery-to-brittle
`transition could occur in the polymer at a low service temperature.
`
`[3 Charp Unnotched Charpy Impact Strength. The Charpy impact test uses a rectangular bar which is struck
`by a pendulum or hammer (or tup). The value obtained is given as the energy required to break a
`specified area of material,
`in kJ/mmz. Specimen preparation is similar to that used for the Izod test
`although the test itself is markedly different to the Izod test as both ends of the sample are unclamped.
`
`NIS Charp Notched Charpy Impact Strength. As with the Izod test, results at 23°C and between -20°C and
`-40°C are usually given. The notch dimensions for Charpy specimens differ to those used in Izod tests.
`
`Vicat Vicat Softening Point (VSP). A thermal softening point test performed using a Vicat needle instrument,
`quoted in °C. It is measured by applying a standard load, either 10 or 5ON, via a circular indentor onto a
`specimen. The sample is heated at a constant rate until the indentor sinks into the sample by a set
`distance. The result is quoted with respect to the load applied and temperature.
`
`(vary with direction) to some extent, This is affected by processing and by reinforcement orientation.
`
`the highest rating; where the specimen burns for less than 10 seconds after either of two
`applications of a defined Bunsen flame. Total flaming combustion time of less than 50 seconds
`for 10 flame applications on five specimens, with no ignition of the surgical cotton.
`V1: specimen burns for less than 30 seconds after either application of the test flame. Total flaming
`combustion time of less than 250 seconds for 10 flame applications on five specimens, with no
`ignition of the surgical cotton.
`V2: as for V1, but flaming particles may occur that ignite the surgical cotton.
`HB: the lowest rating; where the combustion speed is less than 38 mm/min.
`
`Heat Distortion Temperature, or heat deflection under load (HDUL). A three-point flexural test is
`performed on a bar by applying a load to create a stress of either 1.80 MPa or 0.45 MPa at the mid-
`point. The temperature is raised by a predetermined rate and when the specimen deflects by a set
`amount, the temperature is quoted, in °C.
`
`Flammability The flammability of a plastic is most commonly characterised by the Underwriters Laboratory
`(UL 94) horizontal burning test. The test sample, a rectangular bar 127 mm long, is held horizontally, or
`at 45°, and clamped at one end. The burning speed of the bar
`is measured when exposed to a pilot
`flame. The bar is held 305 mm above the surface of a layer of surgical cotton. The thickness of the bar
`can be varied, but is quoted as part of the result, e.g. V0, 1.57. The commonly quoted ratings given to a
`material are:
`
`V0:
`
`A number which indicates the hardness of a material as measured by an standard
`Rockwell Hardness
`indentation test. The use of different loads and indentors gives several Rockwell hardness scales; R
`and M are commonly applied to plastics.
`
`Shore Hardness A measure of the hardness, or softness, of a material as assessed by the resistance (on a
`scale of 0 to 100) to a loaded indentor. 100 corresponds to a high resistance and 0 to zero resistance.
`Two different scales are used for plastics; Shore A (soft materials) or Shore D (harder materials).
`
`CTE Coefficient of Thermal Expansion describes the amount by which a material expands for each degree rise
`in temperature. Thermoplastics have higher CTE values than metals, typically in the range 50 to 150 x
`10'6°/C. The addition of fillers and reinforcements reduces these values. Expansion may be anisotropic
`
`Petitioners' Exhibit 1012, pg. 8
`
`

`

`Volume Res Volume Resistivity (internal resistivity, formerly specific resistance) is used to characterise the
`insulation behaviour of plastics and elastomers.
`It is usually given at 0°C or 20°C. Materials with a
`volume resistivity >108 ohm.cm are classed as insulators (plastics or elastomers). Materials are anti-
`static in the range 102 to 108 ohm.cm. Conducting polymers are <102 ohm.cm.
`
`Surface Res Surface Resistivity is measured as the resistance, in ohms, on opposite edges of a square of a
`material. The size of the square is immaterial as increasing the size increases the width of the
`conductive path but also lengthens it in proportion.
`
`(sometimes specific inductive capacity or
`relative permittivity,
`Dielectric Constant, or
`Dielect Const
`permittivity) is a measure of how well a material will store electrical charge. An insulating material needs
`a low dielectric constant. It is the (unitless) ratio of the capacity of a condenser made with a plastic over
`the capacity of an identical condenser made with air as the dielectric.
`
`Diss Factor Dissipation Factor and power factor are the same for most dielectrics (insulators) and are a
`measure of how much power is converted to heat. Values may be quoted in two ways, eg. 0.002 or
`20 x 10'“. Heat conversion is undesirable in an insulator and so the power factor should be as low as
`possible.
`
`CTI Comparative Tracking Index. A test used to assess materials for their resistance to surface tracking when
`subjected to an electric stress in a wet environment. The result is expressed as the maximum voltage
`(in Volts) at which tracking does not occur when 50 drops of an ionic solution (salt solution of 0.1%
`ammonium chloride) are applied to the active region of test specimen.
`
`Arc Resistance Tests performed to determine the resistance of a polymer compound to electric arcs such as
`

`
`Tear resist Tear resistance or tear strength is the force required to propagate a rip, or tear, in a material, given
`in N/mm. The tearing energy is usually expressed as the ratio of the maximum load measured during
`the test to the specimen thickness. This parameter is applicable to materials used for film or sheet
`applications; also elastomers.
`
`Abrasion resist The abrasion resistance of a material is measured by wearing away a surface in contact with
`a moving abrasive surface. This test is usually applied to rubbers and elastomers, with the value
`expressed in cubic millimetres (mm3) of material removed after a defined period.
`
`Dielectric Str Dielectric Strength (Electric Strength) is the maximum potential gradient that can be applied to a
`material without causing it to break down (usually expressed in kV/mm).
`it is a measure of how well a
`material, a dielectric, can withstand a voltage. The resistance to dielectric breakdown is specified as the
`voltage at which breakdown occurs divided by the specimen thickness. Breakdown occurs as a sudden
`flow of current through the material, Specimen thicknesses are usually >3 mm.
`
`appear in high voltage switch-gear and in circuit breakers.
