are evaluate by Properties TESTING Properties named as tension, compression, hardness, bending, torsion, high strain rate, creep, fatigues, fracture, corrosion, formability, wear, and some others.
Testing • Each test should / may be carried out according to a standard, i.e. a set of instruction to follow in order to obtain data useful to drive the materials properties.
Sample: Tension Testing “Tension Testing consists of subjecting a prepared specimen of special size and shape, or a full-size specimen, to a gradually increasing uniaxial load (stress) until failure occurs.”1 1: C.S. Barrett, Crystal Structure of Metals, ASM Handbook, Volume 8, Metallography and Microstructures, ASM International, 1990, in ASM Handbook on DVD, ASM International and The Dialog Corporation, 1999.
Sample: Hardness Testing “Hardness test is the measures of the material to penetration by a sharp object”1” Common hardness tests are Brinell, Rockwell and Vickers. 1: Donald R. ASKELAND, "The science and engineering of materials“, 3rd Edi., p147, 2003.
Hardness Testing - Brinell Brinell hardness test: A hard steel ball (usually 10 mm in diameter) is used. 3000 kg – Cast iron and steel 500 kg – Nonferrous alloys
Hardness Testing - Rockwell Rockwell hardness test: A diamond cone (120o) and hard carbide (or steel balls) usually 1/16 in. (1.5875mm) or 1/8 in. (3.175mm) in diameter are used. RA – 60 kg – Very hard materials RB – 100 kg – Brass, low strength steels RC – 150 kg – High-strength steels RD – 100 kg – High-strength steels RE – 100 kg – Very soft materials RF – 60 kg – Al, soft materials
Hardness Testing - Vickers Vickers hardness test is a microhardness test. A diamond pyramid (136o) is used for indentation. 10 kg – Hard materials (such as ceramics)
Conclusions • Materials properties are effected by its structure and processing method(s). • Required properties are checked by a set of pre-determined instructions, which are formally named standard for testing.
