CORRELATION BETWEEN STRENGTH PROPERTIES IN

STANDARD TEST SPECIMENS AND MOLDED PHENOLIC PARTS

By P. S. Turner and N. H. Thomason

SUMMARY

This report describes an investigation of the tensile, flexural, and impact properties of 10 selected types of phenolic molding materials. The materials were studied to see in what ways and to what extent their properties satisfy some assumptions on which the theory of strength of materials is based: namely, (a) isotropy, (b) linear stress—strain re-lationship for small strains, and (c) homogeneity. The effect of changing the dimensions of tensile and flexural specimens and the span—depth ratio in flexural tests were studied. The strengths of molded boxes and flexural specimens cut from the boxes were compared with results of tests on standard test specimens molded from the respective materials,

The nonuniformity of a material, which is indicated by the coefficient of variation, affects the results of tests made with specimens of different sizes and tests with differ-ent methods of loading. The strength values were found to depend on the relationship between size and shape of the molded Specimen and size and shape of the fillers. The most

sig-nifjant variations observed within a diversified group of materials were.found to depend on the orientation of fibrous fillers. Of secondary importance was the dependence of the variability of test results on the pieces of filler inoorpor'aj.ed into the molding powder as well as on the siz..e of the piece.

Static breaking strength tests on boxes molded from six

representative phenolic materials correlated, well with falling—ball impact tests on specimens cutfrom molded flat sheets. Good correlation was obtained with Izod impact tests on standard test sp ecimens prepared from the molding materials. The static br'eakjn.g strengths of the boxes do not correlate with the resuj.ts o:f tensile or flexural tests on standard Specimens.

INTRODUCTION

No thorough investigation of the relationshis between the strengths of molded plastic articles and strength data on their materials has been reported. Most of the available data on the strength pro p erties of molded phenolic olastics have been obtained with standard test secimens and standard methods of test. Specific data of this t ype, obtained in accordance with test methods established by the '.merican Society for Testing Materials, are published, in manufacturers' data books, for examp le, references land 2. These sources acknowledge that a "molding material, which on standard test pieces appears superior, may show uo in actual production as being even inferior to another material which on standard test pieces reveals a lower order of desirable propertiest (ref-erence 1). These discrepancies are further attributed to such factors as peculiarities in mold design, size and sha p e of the molded article, and variations in molding conditions, but not to inherent differences in the materials or to selective characteristics of the standard test specimens.

This investigation of the strengths of molded tarts and standard test specimens, conducted at the National Bureau of Standards, was sponsored by and conducted with the financial assistance of the National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics.

The molding materials for this investigation were suoDlied by the Bakelite Corporation and the Monsanto Chemical Comoany, Flat plates molded in 1/9- and 1 / 4-inch thicknesses were fur- nished by the Bakelite Cornoration and boxes were molded of the same materials by the General Electric Com p any , Plastics Division. The cooperation of these firms has made possible this exploration of the nebulous region between standard tests and structural performance and is gratefully acknowledged.

MATERIALS AND PREPARATION OF TEST SPECIMENS

The materials used in this investigation are listed in table I. Flat sheets were molded from the Bakelite phenolic molding materials by the Bakelite Cor p oration. Rectangular boxes were molded from the same compositions by the General Electric Company. Moldings prepared at the National Bureau of Standards included; dumbbell tensile specimens in accord-ance with type I of Method No. 1011 of Federal Specification L-P-406a; rectangular bars, 1 inch wide and 5 inches long;

bars 1/2 by 5 inches for impact specimens; cylinders, 2 inches in diameter and approximately 1 inch in length; and disks, 4 inches in diameter and of various thicknesses. The molding conditions are given in table II.

The specimens molded at the Bureau of Standards were prepared with fully positive hand molds heated by conduction from steam—heated platens. The molding was done with a 50-ton—capacity semi—automatic press. Preforms were prepared in the same molds that were used for the particular specimen. Some of the materials did not produce good preforms at room temperature with the pressure available or permissible for the particular mold. Preforms of these materials were made at somewhat elevated temperatures (see table II) with a hand—operated hydraulic press of 18—ton capacity. The platens were electrically heated and thermostatically controlled.

All machined test specimens were prepared at the National Bureau of Standards. The tensile specimens were milled with a machine having a cam—operated milling fixture for duplicating the desired contour.

TEST PROCEDURES AND EQUIPMENT

Tensile Pests

Tensile tests were made in accordance with Method No. loll of Federal Specification L—P-406a, except that the rate Of separation of the grips was maintained at 0.05 inch per minute and the profile of the specimen specified for thick-nses of 2/4 inch or less was used for all tensile tests. Strains were measured with a Southwark—Peters plastics extensometer, Model No, PS-6, and an autographic stress--strain recorder.' The tensile tests were made on the 0— to 2400—pound range of a 06 0,000—pound—capaoity universal hydraulic testing machine.

Flexural Tests

Flexural tests were conducted at rate of loading speci-fied in Method No. 1031 of Federal Specification L—P-406a

'These strain gages and the recording equipment are described in Bulletin No. 162 issued by the Baldwin Loco-motive Works, Baldwin Southwark Division, Philadelphia, Pa.

for obtaining load—deflection data. Calculations of flexural strength, maximum fiber stress, and modulus of elasticity were made as described in Method No, 1031..

In the tests reported in tables III and IV approximate span—depth ratios were obtained with support and pressure pieces having loading edges rounded to 1/8—inch radii. This jig, together with a notched spacing and centering plate, provided adjustment at a limited number of positions. Sub— sequent tests were made with self—centering continuously variable jigs of the type shown in figure 1 with attachments for obtaining load—deflection data. The deflections were measured with Southwark—Peters plastics extensometers, Models PS-6 and PS-7, and an autographic stress—strain recorder. The pressure and support pieces of the jig which was used for spans of 2 inches or less, shown in figure 1, were rounded to radii of 1/32 inch; those of a larger jig of the same type which was used for spans greater than 2 inches had radii of 1/8 inch,

Specimens used in the study of the effect of span—depth ratio were first broken at the largest span. The remaining pieces were used. for tests at shorter spans. Care was taken to insure that points highly stressed in the first test did not coincide with points of maximum stress in subsecuent tests. Comparisons with specimens which had not been used previously indicated that the portions of the specimens which were used again had not been damaged in the first tests. This method of sampling was used to avoid effects of thick-ness and cure which might affect the results.

The flexural tests were made on the 0— to 2400—pound range of a 6 0 1 000—pound. capacity universal hydraulic testing machine and on the 0— to 240— and 0— to 1200—pound ranges of a 2400—pound—capacity machine.

Izod Impact Tests

The standard Iz.od impact test was conducted in accordance with Method No. 1071 of Federal Specification L —P-406a on speci-mens having machined notches. The molded 1/2— by 1/2— by 5—inch bars were cut in half to make two impact specimens. One—half of each bar was notched in the direction of the molding ram motion and the other half of each bar was notched in the direction pe r p endicular to the ram motion. The tests were made with a pen. 1. yp.e a,ct—testing machine of 4 foot—pound capacity, using the 2— and 4—foot—pound. ranges.

A correction for the energy absorbed in tossing the broken pieces of the specimens was obtained as follows: The broken Meces of the specimens were fitted together and subjected to a second im p act. This tossingenergy was cor- rected for friction and windege. It w as assumed that the energies imarted to the severed end of the specimen were r000rtiona1 to the unextended energies after the Iod and tossing tests. A portion of the tossing energy roortionl to the unexp ended energy in the Izod test was subtracted from the Izod imp act value.

Falling-Ball Imp act Tests

Falling-ball progressive_re,eated mact tests, similar to Method No. 1074 of Federal SDecification L-P-406a, were conducted. on 3- by -inch rectangular sections cut from the molded flat sheets. Preliminary tests were made on 14-inch-diarneter disks of various thicknesses supiDorted On a cast-iron- p ipe cap.

The equipment used for testing the rectangular sections is shown in figure 2. The specimens were mounted in a hard-wood frame which rested on a flat steel plate. - The frame provided a 1/8-inch-wide supporting area at the edges. A 1/2-pound steel ball was used for tests on 1/8-inch-thick sheet material and the molded disks; 112- and 2-'oound balls were used for testing 1/ 14-inch_thjck sheet material.

The height of fall was increased in steps of 1 inch starting with the 1-inch height, until comp lete failure occurred. The energy to crack the specimens also 'as noted.

Impact - Flexural Test

Flexural specimens 112 inch wide, i.hich were machined from the 1/8-inch-thick molded flat sheets, were struck at the center of a 3-inch span "ith a ball weighing 0.15 ocund. The euiment was essentially the same as that shown in figure 2 except that a flexural-test jig (see fig. 1) with suoport pieces rounded to 1/9-inch. radii was substituted for the wooden frame. The height of fall was adjusted by successive high-low ap p roximations so as to obtain the height of fell which would crack but not break apart the soecimen of a specific material v ith a single blow. A majority of the specimens received impacts close to the energ y recuired to crack the s p ecimen. All s p ecimens which were not ooletelv broken by the impact were subjected to e. flexur1 test at a

span-depth ratio of 9:1 With the load, applied at the point of impact. The flexural strengths were plotted against the impact energies applied to the individual specimens.

Tests on Molded Boxes

Breaking-strength tests were conducted on molded boxes using a plunger having a hemis pherical end of 5/9-inch radius, as shown in figure 3 . The rate of travel of the plunger rel-ative to the base of the boxes 1"ac 0.05 inch per minute. The loads were applied in three ways: (1) at the molded hole; (2) at a point on the bottom smmetrical1y located on the diagonal with respect to the center and the molded hole; and (3) at the latter point through a rubber cushion. The load was not app lied at the center of the bottom because of a deeply indented mold number located at that critical point. The rubber cushion was a No. 7 rubber stopp er placed with the larger diameter face bearing on the surface of the box. (See fig. 3.) No attempt was made to analyze the stresses set up in the boxes b y the loads applied.

cdiioi , _ All the specimens were conditioned for at least 8 hours at 25 0 C (770 F) and 50 percent relative humid-ity and were tested in the conditioned atmosphere.

Statistical Analysis

The coefficient of variation which is used as a measure of the variability of the materja1sjg based on the most likely estimate of the standard deviation of the parent p opu-lation (reference 3, P. 145). It is calculated according to the formula

The standard error of the average was calculated accord-ing to the formula:

The standard error for the difference between two aver, ages was calculated according to the formula:

S . E AB = ./sE 2 + S.E.B2

The difference between two averages Is considered to be significant If it equals or exceeds 3 times S.E.AB.

RESULTS OF TESTS AND DISCUSSION

Anisotropy of Molded. Phenolic Plastics

Standard test specimens and standard methods of test do not, as a general rule, take cognizance Of the possibility that molded phenolic plastics may be nonistropic in the three—dimensional sense. It has been reported (reference 4, p. 84) that molded thermosetting plastics are generally isotropic.

Visual examination of molded articles of various sizes and shapes Indicates that In thin sections long fibers of the filler are oriented in planes parallel to the molded surfaces. In thick sections the fibers tend to be oriented In planes perpendicular to the direction of flow In the mold-ing. Peculiar orientations are found around inserts and at abrupt changes in section thickness. Fibers in gradual changes of section are oriented around the contour of the part. Sketches illustrating the orientation of fibers are shown in figure 4.

D ifferences in the directional properties of the various phenolic molding materials in the form of molded cylinders, 2 inches in diameter and approximately 1 inch in length, were investigated. Sections cut from these cylinders were of uni-form appearance when sanded except that the orientation of long fibers was visible. Fibers In the interior of the cylinders were oriented at random in planes perpendicular to the axis of the cylinders, the direction of the ram motion. Fibers near the surface were oriented parallel to the molded surface.

• F].exural specimens of ap proximately uniform size were

cut from the cylinders parallel and Per p endicul9.r, res-pectively, to the axis. Sp ecimens cut from the circular faces were discarded. Rectangular specimens were machined and sanded to uniform thickness within ±0.001 inch.

The results of the flexural strength tests are pre-sented in table III. All the specimens cut with their long axis parallel to the direction of the ram motion failed with typically brittle breaks. The specimens of the long fiber materials cut with their long axis per p endicular to the ram motion broke with tt gren stick breaks."

The ratio of the flexural strength of specimens cut parallel and perpendicular, res p

ectively, to the axis of the cylinder is used as an index of - isotrop y. The variation of this index with bulk factor of the p owder (see footnote of table I) is shown graphically in figure 5 . The bulk factor is roughly a measure of the size and the shap e of the filler particles.

Tensile and Flexural Pro p erties of Phenlic Plastics

Variation of flexura]. strength with span-depth ratio. The strength of a structure made of a brittle material usually is determined in service by resistance to bending, alone or in combination with axial loading (reference 5, p. 25), It is generally recognized that the flexural strength (modulus of rupture) varies with the material, the form of the section, the method and rate of loading, the sp an-depth ratio, and, in the case of fibrous materials such as wood, upon the size of the piece. The effect of span-depth ratio on the strength of brittle materials - for example, cast iron .ad plaster - is slight except for ratios less than 10 (reference 6, op. 103 and 106).

Few data on the variation of flexural strength with s p an-depth ratio have been reported for plastics although different specifications require different ratios for testing. Federal Specification L-P-406a requires a minimum span-depth ratio of 16:1. The flexural strength data published in the manu-facturers' data books have been determined at a span-depth ratio of 8:1 in accordance with A.S.T.M. methods.

The variation of flexural strength with span-depth ratio obtained on molded specimens of 10 phenolic molding materials is given in table IV. The depth of the beam in these tests was the molded thickness of the sheet. Curves for BM-45,' BM-120, and. R-6565, which showed statistically significant variations with span-depth ratio, and for BM-250, which showed practically no change, are shown in figure 6. The asbestos-filled material, B}4-250, and the mica-filled material, Resinox 7013, show the least variation with span-depth ratio,

The materials containing large pieces of filler, such as those containing tire cord or macerated fabric, fre- quently broke at points some distance from the center of the beam. These failures occurred at the junctures of large pieces of filler. The results obtained with those materials were too variable to show a significant variation with span-de p th ratio with the number of specimens used.

Although no two materials show the same quantitative variation with span-depth ratio, the flexural strengths of the mo1ded and laminated plastics are usually greater for smaller ra.tos.

The large deflectiona obtained in the flexural tests of some plast-ics at large pan-depth ratios introduce consider-able err-or into the calculation of the bending moment. The reactions at the support pieces are no longer parallel to the applied load. The component of the moment produced by the sidewise-thrust of the support pieces is not considered in the method of calculating prescribed by the F ederal and A.S.T.M, specifications Also when large deflections occur, the specimen may slip and increase the actual span length. The magnitude of these errors would be less in tests at a span-depth ratio of 8:1 than at a ratio of 16:1.

Effect of varying the dimensions of specimens on

The results of flexural tests on specimens cut from- flat sheets and on molded bars are listed in table V. Speo15 were prepared from the flat sheets in three widths for both 1/8- and 1/4-inch thicknesses, The flexural strength appears to be independent of the width of the speci-men. The 1/4-inch-wide specimens of BM-200 and B?4-3510 were hard to m.aeh.jne and had burred edges. The burred edges are believed to -b the cause of the reduced strength of these Specime

The most noticeable effect is the lower strength ob-tained with the thicker specimens of the long-fiber materials, BM-250, BM-200, and 314-35 10. It should be noted that tht effect would invalidate studies of the effect of span-depth ratio in which different ratios are obtained with specimens of different molded. thicknesses. The effect does not appear in the case of the w oodf1ourfi.].1ed material, BM- L 5, and gradually becomes more pronounced for increasinglv fibrous materials. This selectivity of the thickness effect in-dicates that it is caused by the fibrous fillers rather than by curing effects.

Additional studies of the effect of thickness and cur-ing time on flexural strength were made with BM-120, a mold-ing material which showed onl y a sli ght difference between thicknesses of 1/9 and l/l inch. S p ecimens were taken from 4-inch disks molded in thicknesses bet'een 1/16 inch and 3/ inch. Disks were molded for the minimum length of time re-quired to p roduce sound moldings and for twice that length of time. The results of the flexural strength tests are given in table VI and shown graihical1r in figure 7. These data show that minimum and double cures make only a slight difference for this material. The effect of thickness be-comes more p ronounced for 1/16- and 3/32-inch thicknesses, which are more nearly com-parable to the lengths of the fibrous filler in this material.

Comparative tensile tests with different types of sped-The data for tensile strength which are published, in

manufacturers' data books have been obtained using the "dog-bone" specimen described in Method No, 1012 of Federal SDeci-fication L-P-406a and in A.S.T.M. Method of Test D 61_42T. The use of the "dumbbell" s p ecimen described in ! .T ethod No. 1011 of Federal Specification L-P-406a and A.S.T.M. Method of Test D 638- 1 2T has been considered for re1acing the dog-. bne specimen by A.S.T.M. Committee D-20 on Plastics. The two specimens are shown in figure 4 Reports on comparative test data have been inconsistent.

Comparative tensile test results obtained with molded dumbbell specimens, dumbbell specimens machined from l/-. and 1/4-inch-thick molded sheets, and results obtained in other laboratories with both specimens are listed in table VII. Data from the manufacturers' bulletins are included for com-parison. In general, the dogbone specimens indicate higher strengths with lower coefficients of variation, The test data re p orted by the Bakelite Cororatjon for dumbbell soeci-mens are more erratic than those obtained at the National

Bureau of Standards. klrnost without excetion larger s p eci-mens of both shapes show lower coefficients of variation. The significance of the results obtained with the doghone specimens has been ouestioned generally because of the shape of the test piece.

The most variable results with dumbbell specimens molded at the National Bureau of Standards were obtained w ith Resinox 6905, a material containing chopp

ed tire cord. The nieces of tire cord have lengths varying between 1/2 and 3 inches. In the molded dumbbell specimen the lengths of cord have a p re-ferred orientation along the length of the s p ecimen. The strength of a specimen would be high if a number of the longer lengths extended through the reduced section and low 'if, as a matter of chance, none bridged the distance. The failure of specimens of this material differed from the failures of the other materials in that the specimens were not com-pletely severed. The variety of stress-strain diagrams obtained with Resinox 6905 is shown in figure 9. The dog-bone specimen would permit most of the cords to be anchored in the ends of the specimens. The dogbone specimen would, therefore, be expected to give higher results.

None of the other materials contain nieces of filler long enough to bridge the reduced section of the dumbbell specimen, but many of the materials contain fibers sufficient-ly long to bridge the reduced section of the dogbone speci-men. These materials show much lower strengths with the dumbbell specimen. The "oodflourfilled material, the fibers of which are too short to bridge the reduced section of either specimen, shows a greater strength with the dumb-bell specimen than is re p

orted for the dogbone specimen. It is obvious from this dicussjon that an erroneous im-pression of the tensile strength of a molded p art may be obtained from tests of standard specimens.

The results obtained w ith the machined dumbbell seci-mens are in good agreement with the results ohta.ined with the molded dumbbell s p ecimens except for the asbestos-filled material BM-250. Since different batches of moiling materi-als were used for pre p

aring the different specimens, perfect agreement cannot be exp ected. The slightly higher results obtained by the Bell Telep hone Laboratory for BM-510 may have been caused by the higher rate of loading.

Stress-strain relationships.- Typical tensile stress-strai diagrams for molded dumbbell s p ecimens are shown in figure 9. These curves were obtained with stronger-than-

average specimens. The average ultimate strength for each material is indicated on the curves. A stress-strain diagram for cast iron (reference 7, p. 356) is given for comparison. The tensile stress-strain diagrams obtained with eight molded specimens of Resinox 6905 are shown in figure 9.

The stress-strain curves for all the phenoltc molding materials are similar to the curve for cast iron and siso to curves for concrete in comression and tension (reference 9, pp. 119 and 120). These curves indicate that the molded phenolic plastics behaved like ty'mical brittle materials in the tensile tests.

Typical flexural load-deflection diagrams for six p he-nolic materials are shown in figure 10. Other re p orts 1 for examp le, reference 9, p. 122, show si m ilar contrasting curves for woodflour- and fabric-filled materials. The flexural test emphasizes the differences between the materials. In the flexural test the failure of a surface fiber in tension will produce a succession of beams of diminishing depth which will offer diminishing resistance to the motion of the load-ing device. The materials containing short fibers offer. little resistance to the progress of the failure through the beam and consequently show brittle failures. The type of failure depends on the degree of orientation of the fibers across the fracture.

Tensile moduli of elasticity.- The tensile moduli of elasticity of the molding materials are given in table VIII. These moduli were obtained with a nonaveraging strain gage and consequently are affected b y any initial warping of the specimens. The differences between the results obtained for the short-fiber materials with machined and molded speci-mens are masked by the variability of the results. The differences observed for BM- . 250, BM-200, and BM-35 10 are large enom.gh to be significant, although they are not con-sistent

The tensile modulus of elasticity of the asbestos-filled material, BM-250, as determined with molded dumbbell speci-

mens, varied between 1.64 X 106 psi for a specimen 0,2O4

inch thick to 2.22.X 10 6 psi for a smecimen 0.121 inch thick. The moduli of intermediate thicknesses fell in regular sequence between these limits. The moduli of the specimens machined from the flat sheets show only a slight change with thickness and are higher than the moduli of the molded sp ecimens. The other materials did not show this effect.

Page 14: NATIONAL ADVISORY COMMITTEE FOR AERONAUTICS · at somewhat elevated temperatures (see table II) with a hand— operated hydraulic press of 18—ton capacity. The platens were electrically

NACA Ti No. 1005 13

It is thought that this behavior can be exp1ined as follows: The lengths of the asbestos fibers in BT-250 are short in comDarison 1 'ith the length and width of the reduced section of the molded dumbbell specimen, but are corntrable to the thickness. In the central portion of the specimen, away from the edges, the fibers are oriented flatwise in the same way as in molded flat sheets. Along the edges the fibers are, oriented parallel to the surface of the molded edge. As the thickness of the molded specimen is decreased, the orientation of the fibers annroaches the laminar orienta-tion of the flat sheets. The modulus of elasticity corre-spondingly apDroaches the modulus obtained for the flat sheets. The magnitude of the change of modulus with thickness for this material is attributed to the large differences between the properties of the asbestos filler and the resin.

• .

The lengths of the fibrous fillers in PIT-200 and 3M-3510 are short in comarison with the length of the dumb-bell specimen but long in comparison with the width and thickness. Because of these relative dimensions the fibers are oriented along the length of the sDecimen and cause the moduli of the molded specimens to be higher than those of the specimens machined from 'flat sheets. The fibers in specimens cut from flat sheets are oriented in the plane of the sheet, but have a random orientation along the length of the specimens.

Flexural •moduli of elasticity.- Data for modulus of elasticity in flexure are reported in table IX. Thee moduli agree fairly well with the tensile moduli retorted in table VIII. The moduli determined on 112- by 1/2- b.y 5-inch molded bars are affected by the direction of testing with reference to the direction of arplication of the molding pressure. The orientation of the fibers in moldd bars is shown in figure 4 Since the fibers along the edges can be-

oriented both parallel to molded edge and DerDendicular to the direction of the ram motion, these surface fibers are most highly oriented. Higher results are obtained in edgewise tests when the deoth of the beam is taken ocr-pendicular to the direction of ram notion when the most highly oriented fibers are located in the tension and com-pressive faces of the beam. The effect is greater for materials containing long fibers (large bulk factors), as shown in figure 11.

Impact Properties of Phenolic Plastics

Izod impact tests. - The p endulum tyDe of imDact test has been found most useful for cornoaring the shock resist-ance of electrical insulating materials of generally similar comoositjon and physical characteristics. The test is re- ported to be unreliable for indicating the relative shock resistance of materials which differ markedly in composition or mechanical properties (reference 10, p. 7).

The Izod impact strength of the six phenolic molding materials are listed in table X in com parison with data taken from the Bakelite Technical Data Book. The discrean-cy between the manufacturers' data and that obtained at the National Bureau of Standards for the macerated fabric-filled materials may depend on the capacities of the machines used. The 4-foot-pound pendulum of the machine used at the National Bureau of Standards was barely sufficient to sever the soeci-mens of BM-200 and BM-3510, although the capacity was three to four times the indicated breaking energy. The specimens which were not completely severed were left attached to the clamped portion by a few threads which acted as a hinge per-mitting the specimen to fold over out of the oath of the pendulum. The other results are in good agreement. The im-pact strengths were consistently higher for s p ecimens notched perpendicular to the rain motion com p ared w ith-those notched parallel to the ram motion.

The energy expended in tossing the broken halves of the specimens amounted to about two-thirds of the Izod im-pact strength in the case of the w oodflour_filled. material, BM-i45. The energy required to toss the broken halves of the sPecimens in all cases was oro p ortional to the oecifjc gravity of the material and amounted to 0.14 foot-mound per inch of notch pr unit of specific gravity. since this amount of energy does not include any breaking energy, Izod impact strengths of 0.20 and 0 .27, values freouently reported for cellulose-filled and mineral-filled materials, respec- tively, indicate little if any imoact resistance. These values aoly only to results obtained t'ith the 2- to 4-foot-pound machine with standard s p ecimens. Correcting the Izod impact strength for the tossing energy b y subtracting a part of the tossing energy proportional to the residual energy of the pendulum after the Izod test, accentu.tes the differ-ences between materials and bet r een directions of test.ng. It throws little light on the actual differences between the impact resistance of the materials.

The work involved in breaking an unnotched impact bar in flexure is also retorted in table X. The work to maxi-mum load and the total work to break the specimens were determined from the ars of the load-deflection diagrams (fig. 10). The areas were obtained with a planimeter. The work to maximum load does not show any consistent re-lationship to the Izod impact strength. The total work separates the fabric-filled materials from the other because of the large amount of w ork done after failure. Hazen (ref-erence ii) re p orts that static bending tests give mineral-filled phenolic materials toughness ratings more nearly in agreement with ordinary experience, but that the test under-rates the toughiiess of fabric-filled materials such as BM-3510. Hoever, Hazen included only the work done to the maximum load, in his ratings. He re p orted a value of 0.691 foot-pound p er cubic inch for BM-3510 as compared with a value of 0.85 for work to maximum load obtained in this laboratory. The total work w as about 1.5 foot-p ound per cubic inch, indicating that the energy to tear the fabric-filled mate-rials after failure may account for a 1arre Dart of the measured imact strength.

F11ing-ball impact tests.- The results of progressive-repeated filling- ball imp act tests on 14-inch disks of 3M-120 are given in table XI. The magnitude of the last im p act in a series of impacts w hich caused failure is DroDortional to a p ower of the thickness between one and two. Since a number of other factors, such as the diameter-to-thickness ratio of the disks, the number of imoacts, and the velocity of the final impact are variable, the results are considered from a purely empirical viewpoint, assuming oro p ortionality to the square of the thickness. As long as corimarisons are made between sheets of the same nominal thickness, the exact re-lationshi p need not be known. The relationshin between the magnitude of the final impact energy on this basis and the number of impacts is shown in figure 12. This curve shows a trend with thickness similar to that observed for flexural strength shown in figure 7.

On the basis of these results, similar p rogressive-repeated impact tests were made on rectangular sections cut from molded flat sheets of the six phenolic molding materials. The results of these tests are given in table XII. The series of impacts on the 1/4-inch-thick sheets with a 2-pound ball caused failure at about the same impact energy per unit of thickness squared as that of a larger number of higher veloc-ity impacts with the 1/2-round ball. The energy required to crack the tension side of the plates apnears to be

independent of the filler and conse q uently shows no cor-relation with the Izod impact strength. The degree of cracking required to define failure was arbitrarily chosen as the first visible crack. In the case of the fibrous materials the widening of the crack occurred very gradually. The foregoing conclusions could, therefore, be changed appreciably by a different interpretation as to when failure occurred.

The energy required to disrupt the specimens completely shows a very definite increase for increasingly fibrous materials. A comparison with the results of the Izod impact test is shown in figure 13. since the cracking energy is practically constant for the different materials, it is apparent that high Izod impact strength indicated high tear-ing strength.

Imp act-flexural test.- This test was devised to evalu-ate the damage the simens of the long-fiber materials in the falling-ball test. since the enrgy re q uired. to crack the sDecimens in the falling-ball test was practically ineDendent of the fil1r, the different behavior of the materials must be attributed to their differing ability to sustain partial failure without total loss of strength.

The effect of single impacts on the flexural strengths of simple beams is given in table XIII. Each impact value in the table represents tests on 114 to 21 s p ecimens 1/2 inch wide cut from the 1/8-inch-thick molded flat sheets. Most of these specimens received impacts close to or within the range of impacts which caused cracking. The short-fiber materials BM- 145, B14-120, and BM-6260 did not indicate a range of cracking energies but ere either completely broken or not apparently damaged by the impact. The flexural strengths, including zeros for specimens broken by the impact alone, w ere averaged in appropriate ranges of impact energies. The curves for EM-120 and for BM-3510, a long-fiber material, are shown in figure 114. The impact energies, ex p ressed in inch-pound per thickness squared, required to reduce the average flexural strength to 10,000 and 5,000 pounds per square inch, respectively, were determined grap hically from curves of the residual flexural strength plotted against the impact energy. Comp arison of these imp act energies with the Izod impact strengths of these materials is shown in figure 15.

Good correlation is observed for the short-fiber mate-rials (bulk factors less than 14) and long-fiber materials

(bulk factors greater than )4), respectively, but different iroportionality factors are involved for the two classes of materials.

Strength Properties of Molded Boxes

The flexural strengths of secimens cut from the molded boxes are compared with data obtained on s p ecimens from the 1/8-inch-thick molded flat sheets in table XIV. The loca-tions of the specimens cut from the boxes are shown in figure 16. The smoother outer surface of the boxes was made the tension side of the beam. The strengths of soeci-mens from the boxes are in good agreement w ith the strengths of specimens from the 1/S-inch-thick sheets, except for boxes made from BM-250.

The reduced strength of the asbestos-filled material 13M-250 may be caused by a number of factors. The boxes of this material were molded from preforms instead of loose powder which was used for boxes of the other materials. B11-250 is the only mineral-filled material represented and has a mold shrinkage less than that contemolted b y the mold designer. The significant difference observed for specimens cut at right angles to one another suggests that the direction of flow from the single preform results in a secial orientation of filler in this molded box.

The breaking strengths of the boxes molded from the six phenolic materials are given in table XV. A comparison with the flexural strengths of soecimens cut from the molded boxes is shown in figure 17. The strength of the boxes does not correlate with any of the tensile or flexural strengths determined in the course of this investigation.

The failure of the boxes made from the short-fjbei materials was sudden and complete. The boxes made of the long-fiber materials showed signs of failure at about the same load which caused complete failure of the short-fiber materials but were able to Withstand considerably higher loads in spite of numerous cracks. The manner of failure was verysimilar to the failure of the flat shets in. the falling-ball test.

A comparison of the strengths of the boxes with the results of the falling-ball test on the 1/14-jnch-thick sheets is shown in figure iS. Correlation of the strengths of the boxes w ith the results of the Izod imoact test on

standard molded soecimens is shown in figure 19, with the isotropic index as determined, on molded cylinders in figure 20, and with the bulk factors of the molding powders in fig-ure 21. The last two comparisons show a significant differ-ence between the mineral and cellulose-filled materials. Of the data u suall y reoorted in the manufacturers' bulle-tins the Izod impact strength is the best index of the strength of the boxes. The results are in agreement with the current practice of designing on the basis of impact resistance (reference 12). The strengths of articles of other shaoes which would not Dermit the distribution of the load b y partial failure v ould not be exoected to show similar correlation.

Variabilit y of Materials

Coefficients of variation as defined b y the formula on page 6 have been reoorted for most of the test results. The coefficients of variation obtained Yith small samples are themselves ciuite variable, as would be exoected. The materials containing larger nieces of filler are much more variable than the materials containing 'oodflour or short cotton flock, particularly in the flexural tests. Thinner moldings of the materials containing fibrous fillers have higher flexural strengths, as stated by the manufacturers, but at the expense of increased variability (table v). Coefficients of variation of larger tensile specimens of both dumbbell and d.ogbone types are less than coefficients of smaller specimens although the strengths shot' little change with cross section if the length of the specimen is kept constant (table VII).

In the flexural tests high results were usuall y accom-panied by off-center failures. Low results were obtained when a discontinuity of the filler occurred on the tension face of the beam at mids p an. It should be noted, therefore, that both the flexural strengths and the variabilities of the fabric-filled materials determined with the l/-inch-thick specimens would have been lower if the strength had been calculated for the stress at the 0oint of failure instead of for failure at midsan.

The largest sam p les were used for tests of specimens cut from the molded boxes. Coefficients of variation cal-culated for these results are considered to he t yp ical of the materials. Frequency-flexural stren gth diagrams for the six phenolic molding materials are sho w n in figure A.

1'ACA TN No. 1005 19

The difference in the flexural stiength of 3M-200 when tested at span-depth ratios of 16:1 and 8:1, respectively, i s 700 Psi or about 6 percent (table IV). The coefficient of variation considered to be typical of this material in l/-inch thickness is 16 p ercent (table V and fig. 22). In order to establish the significance of tie difference in flexural strength it would be necessary to make 10 tests At each span- enth ratio. The use of the five siecimens usuall y reouired for routine tests of riastic materials is definitel y inadequate for determining small differences for such variable materials. For examle, five secimens of the above-mentioned material w ould be sufficient only to estab-lish the significance of i difference of about 30 Dercent or more.

The nonuniformit y of a material, which is indicated b y the coefficient of vari.tion, affects the results of tests made with specimens of different sises and tests with difforent methods of loding. Tucker (reference l) presents n. treatment of the statistic.1 theory of the effects of dimensions and methods of loading ucon strength properties, wherein the "weakest-link" theory developed indep endentl y by Weibull (reference l4), and the "strength-summation" theory are discussed in relation to the strength of concrete beams. The statistical analyses as verified by tests on concrete beams indicate that the modulus of rupture (flexural strength) is inde p endent of the width of the beam, but is decrea,ed by an increase in thickness or length. The first two of these conclusions are sub-stantiated b y the results reported here of tests on speci-mens of different widths Pnd thickness cut from the molded flat sheets. The most variable materials show the greatest differences with thickness. The conclusion regarding the effect of length was not checked 'because it was not oossible to isolate the indeendent effect of span-depth ratio.

The 'weakest-link-in-series theory prop osed by Weibull indicates that smaller tensile specimens (shorter lengths) should have higher strength. This may partially explain the higher results obtained with the doghone specimens although the effect of orientation of the fillers and the effect of the shape of the s p ecimen may be the principal cause of the difference.

The strength-summation or r 1inks_in_ D aral1e1 tT theory indicates that the tensile strength should be indeendent of the cross section and that the coefficient of variation should decrease with an increase in cross section. This is

Page 21: NATIONAL ADVISORY COMMITTEE FOR AERONAUTICS · at somewhat elevated temperatures (see table II) with a hand— operated hydraulic press of 18—ton capacity. The platens were electrically

NACA TN No. 1005

20

substantially what was observed for the tensile strengths of specimens machined from the 1/8-inch- q nd 114-inch-thick' molded flat sheets.

In the foregoing discussion the statistical theor y has been apr1ied only qualitatively since the coefficients of variation based on small samples are themselves quite variable. The qualitative agreement w ith the statistical theory indicates that further work along this line would be useful.

CON CL US TONS

Conclusions relating particularly to test specimens and methods of test have been presented in the discussion. These findings indicate that the interoretation of the results of tests must take into consideration the charac-teristics of the individual filler in relation to the particular test piece.

General conclusions are as follows:

1. Phenolic molding materials are generally nonisotropic. The degree of anisotro p

y deoends on the size and shape of the fillers and the dimensions and shape of the molded sec-tion.

2. The nonhomogeneity of these materials is r'flected in the coefficient of variation which increases with the size of the iieces of filler and is an imDortant character-istic of each material.

3. The flexural strengths of snecimens cut from molded boxes were found to be ingood agreement with the flexural strengths of specimens from molded flat sheets of aprroxi-matel.y equal thickness. AnAsbestos-filled material 3M-250 appears to be an exception to this statement. The reason for the exceotion has not been established.

4. Tensile and flexural stress-strain curves indicate that phenolic materials are essentially brittle. Fibrous materials, however, are capable of relieving localized stress and distributing the load by partial failure.

5. The breaking strengths of molded boxes correlates well with the results of the falling-ball impact test on flat sheets molded of the same materials. Good correlation

21

is also obtained with the Izod irnoact strength as determined on standard test s.ecirnens. Good corrolation with the bulk factor of the oowder also was observed.

6. The trends observed in this investigation for the behavior of standard test specimens agree ouniitatively with conclusions derived from statistical analysis of the effects of dimensions and methods of loading upon the strength proo-erties of concrete beams. It is concluded that further work along these lines is desirable.
