ISO 179-1 Plastics Charpy Impact Test Laboratory Testing Service Provided by Eurolab: A Comprehensive Guide

The ISO 179-1 Plastics Charpy Impact Test is a widely recognized and standardized laboratory test used to evaluate the impact resistance of plastics. This test is governed by international standards, including ISO 179-1:2019(E) and ASTM D256-15a, among others. The standard specifies the requirements for testing the impact strength of plastics using a Charpy impact test.

International and National Standards

The following standards are relevant to the ISO 179-1 Plastics Charpy Impact Test:

  • ISO 179-1:2019(E): This is the most recent version of the standard, published in 2019. It specifies the requirements for testing the impact strength of plastics using a Charpy impact test.

  • ASTM D256-15a: This standard was published by ASTM International (formerly known as the American Society for Testing and Materials) in 2015. It also specifies the requirements for testing the impact strength of plastics using a Charpy impact test.

  • EN ISO 179-1:2001: This is an European Standard that corresponds to the ISO 179-1 standard.

    • Standard Development Organizations

    Standard development organizations (SDOs) play a crucial role in developing and maintaining standards. Some of the notable SDOs involved in the development of standards related to the ISO 179-1 Plastics Charpy Impact Test include:

  • International Organization for Standardization (ISO): ISO is an independent, non-governmental organization that develops and publishes international standards.

  • ASTM International: ASTM is a voluntary, non-profit organization that develops and publishes standards for materials, products, and services.

    • Evolution of Standards

    Standards evolve over time to reflect changes in technology, industry needs, and regulatory requirements. The ISO 179-1 standard has undergone several revisions since its initial publication in the late 1990s.

  • ISO 179-1:2019(E): This is the most recent version of the standard, published in 2019.

  • ISO 179-1:2001: This is an earlier version of the standard, published in 2001.

    • Standard Compliance Requirements

    Compliance with relevant standards is essential for manufacturers and suppliers of plastics to ensure that their products meet the required safety and performance standards. Non-compliance can lead to serious consequences, including product recalls, lawsuits, and damage to reputation.

  • Industry-specific standards: Different industries have specific standards related to the ISO 179-1 Plastics Charpy Impact Test.

  • Regulatory requirements: Regulatory bodies, such as governments and industry associations, require compliance with relevant standards.

    • The ISO 179-1 Plastics Charpy Impact Test is a critical test for evaluating the impact resistance of plastics. This section explains why this specific test is needed and required.

    • Testing Parameters and Conditions

    The following testing parameters and conditions are specified in the standard:

  • Temperature: 23C 2C

  • Humidity: 50 5

  • Impact velocity: 3.46 m/s 0.05 m/s

    • This section explains how to interpret test results and report them.

    Test Results

    The test results include:

  • Impact energy: The impact energy absorbed by the specimen.

  • Impact strength: The impact strength of the specimen, calculated using the impact energy and specimen dimensions.

    • Reporting Requirements

    Reporting requirements include:

  • Test report format: The test report must be presented in a specific format.

  • Data presentation: Test data must be presented in a clear and concise manner.

    • This section explains the importance of certification and accreditation for laboratories conducting the ISO 179-1 Plastics Charpy Impact Test.

    Certification Requirements

    Laboratories conducting the test must be certified by a recognized certification body, such as:

  • ISO/IEC 17025:2017

  • ASTM E543-17

    • Accreditation Requirements

    Accreditation requirements include:

  • Scope of accreditation: The laboratorys scope of accreditation must cover the ISO 179-1 Plastics Charpy Impact Test.

  • Continuing competence: The laboratory must demonstrate continuing competence in conducting the test.

    • In conclusion, the ISO 179-1 Plastics Charpy Impact Test is a critical test for evaluating the impact resistance of plastics. Laboratories conducting this test must be certified and accredited by recognized certification bodies to ensure that they meet the required standards. Compliance with relevant standards is essential for manufacturers and suppliers of plastics to ensure product safety and regulatory compliance.
