ASTM E606 is a standard test method for measurement of the strain controlled fatigue properties of nominally homogeneous materials by subjection to uniaxial forces. ASTM E606 is intended as a guide for fatigue testing performed at low and high cycles for inelastic and plastic materials.
Scope:
The standard test method for Strain-Controlled Fatigue Test by ASTM E606 determines fatigue properties of nominally homogeneous materials. ASTM E606 is mainly performed in support of activities like materials research and development, mechanical design, process and quality control, product performance, and failure analysis. Strain-controlled fatigue can also be an important consideration in design of industrial products. This test is intended primarily for strain controlled fatigue testing but some sections may provide useful information for force-controlled or stress-controlled testing.
Test Procedure:
For ASTM E606, the sample is loaded into a fatigue tester or fatigue test machine and loaded using the predetermined test stress, then unloaded to either zero load or an opposite load. This cycle of loading and unloading is then repeated until the end of the test is reached. The test may be run to a predetermined number of cycles or until the sample has failed depending on the parameters of the test.
Specimen Size:
According to ASTM E606, it is desirable to obtain test specimens from sheet materials less than 6.0 mm (0.24 inch) thick.
For the duration of the test, the controlled temperature of the specimen should be Tn ± 2°C.
Data:
Strain controlled fatigue is reported in SI units or inch pounds and is considered as standard Separately.
For materials that are fatigue tested at temperatures other than ambient, all temperatures shall be Tn ± ∆T.
ASTM E572 test method covers the analysis of stainless and alloy steels by Wavelength Dispersive X-ray Fluorescence Spectrometry (WDXRF). It provides rapid, multi-element determinations with sufficient accuracy to assure product quality.
The ASTM D2674 is a standard test method for the analysis of sulfochromate etches solution used in the surface preparation of aluminum. The ASTM D2674 standard specifies a method for determining the efficacy of an etchant used to prepare the surface of aluminum alloys for subsequent adhesive bonding.
An immunological method for quantization of Hevea Natural Rubber (HNRL) proteins using rabbit anti-HNRL serum. Rabbits immunized with HNRL proteins react to the majority of the proteins present, and their sera have the capability to detect most if not all the proteins in HNRL.
ASTM G65 measures the resistance of metallic materials to abrasion using the dry sand/rubber wheel apparatus. The quality, durability, and toughness of the sample are determined using this test. Metallic materials are ranked in their resistance to scratching abrasion under a controlled environment.
ASTM E2141 test methods provide accelerated aging and monitoring of the performance of time-dependent electrochromic devices (ECD) integrated in insulating glass units (IGU). This test helps to understand the relative serviceability of electrochromic glazings applied on ECD.
ASTM C724 test method is used in analyzing the quality and ease of maintenance of a ceramic decoration on architectural-type glass. This test method is useful in the acknowledgment of technical standards.
