DIN EN 12814-3
Testing of welded joints of thermoplastics semi-finished products - Part 3: Tensile creep test; German version EN 12814-3:2014
Prüfen von Schweißverbindungen aus thermoplastischen Kunststoffen - Teil 3: Zeitstand-Zugversuch; Deutsche Fassung EN 12814-3:2014
Overview
DIN EN 12814-3 specifies the dimensions, the method of sampling and the preparation of the test specimens, and the conditions for performing the tensile creep test perpendicular to the weld in order to determine the long-term tensile welding factor. A tensile creep test may be used in conjunction with other tests (such as bend test, tensile test, macrographic examination, ...) to assess the performance of welded assemblies, made from thermoplastics materials. EN 12814-3:2014 has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 249 "Plastics", the secretariat of which is held by NBN, Belgium. The responsible national standardization body is Working Committee NA 092-00-32 AA "Fügen von Kunststoffen" ("Joining of plastics") at DIN Standards Committee Welding and Allied Processes (NAS).
