Plastics - Determination of Charpy impact properties - Part 1: Non-instrumented impact test (ISO/DIS 179-1:2025); German and English version prEN ISO 179-1:2025
Abstract
This document specifies a method for determining the Charpy impact strength of plastics under defined conditions. A number of different types of specimen and test configurations are defined. Different test parameters are specified according to the type of material, the type of test specimen and the type of notch. The method can be used to investigate the behaviour of specified types of specimen under the impact conditions defined and for estimating the brittleness or toughness of specimens within the limitations inherent in the test conditions. It can also be used for the determination of comparative data from similar types of material.
