Outline Current status of normative documents for SPT Standardization in ASTM Interlaboratory testing ILS1408 Selected materials, testing requirements Data evaluation Open questions Current plan of ASTM standardization 1
Current state of SP standardization (1/2) Existing standard The Society of Materials Science, Japan (Ed.), Standard for Small Punch Creep Test Estimation of Residual Life for High Temperature Component, vol. ISBN 978-4-901381-38-3, 2012. Focused on the SP creep tests, only partly translated Other standards ASTM F2183-02(2008) - Standard Test Method for Small Punch Testing of Ultra-High Molecular Weight Polyethylene Used in Surgical Implants ASTM F2977-13 - Standard Test Method for Small Punch Testing of Polymeric Biomaterials Used in Surgical Implants Characterization of surgical implants material at RT Mainly for the reproducibility of results and not for the determination of mechanical properties 2
