Thermoplastics pipes for the transport of fluids — Determination of pendulum impact strength by the Charpy method — Part 2: Test conditions for pipes of various materials

Scope

Specifies the values or options chosen for the test parameters, i. e. the impact energy, test piece dimensions, shape and spacing of the test piece supports, and type of test piece, for testing the impact resistance (pendulum method) of thermoplastics pipes. Applies to pipes made of PVC-U; PVC-U,EP; PVC-C; ABS; ASA and PP and propylene-copolymer. This test is not intended to be a reference test method for determining the impact strength of pipes.
