ISO 527-2 specifies the test conditions for determining the tensile properties of moulding and extrusion plastics. To match this to your program, talk with our team.
What ISO 527-2 Covers
It applies the general ISO 527-1 principles to moulded and extruded plastics, fixing specimen shapes and test speeds so results for these materials are comparable.
How the Test Is Run
A dumbbell specimen is pulled at a defined speed with strain measured over the gauge length, and tensile strength, modulus, and elongation are determined.
Why It Matters
Moulding and extrusion grades are qualified against ISO 527-2; consistent specimens and accurate strain measurement are essential.
