This document specifies test procedures for the acquisition and presentation of multipoint data on the following mechanical properties of plastics:

—    dynamic modulus;

—    tensile properties at constant test speed;

—    ultimate stress and strain;

—    tensile stress-strain curves;

—    tensile creep;

—    Charpy impact strength;

—    puncture impact behaviour.

The test methods and test conditions apply predominantly to those plastics that can be injection- or compression-moulded or prepared as sheets of specified thickness from which specimens of the appropriate size can be machined.
