ASTM D7291 Test for Flat Tensile Strength and Modulus of Elasticity Through Thickness of Fiber Reinforced Polymer Matrix Composite Material

EUROLAB, with its state-of-the-art accredited laboratories and expert team, provides precise and fast testing services within the scope of ASTM D7291 testing. This standard specifies the "flat" tensile strength and elastic modulus throughout the thickness of fiber-reinforced polymer matrix composite materials.

A tensile force is applied perpendicular to the plane of the composite laminate using thick metal end tabs bonded with adhesive. Composite material forms are limited to composites reinforced with either continuous fiber or discontinuous fiber (tape or 2-dimensional fabric or both).

The through-thickness strength results using this test method will generally not be comparable to Test Method D 6415, as this method exposes a relatively large volume of material to an almost uniform stress field, whereas Test Method D 6415 exposes a small volume of material. a non-uniform stress field.

This standard does not purport to address all security issues, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices prior to use and to determine the applicability of regulatory restrictions.
