What's the Impact Test method for plastic material?

Charpy Impact is a single point test that measures a materials resistance to impact from a swinging pendulum. Charpy impact is defined as the kinetic energy needed to initiate fracture and continue the fracture until the specimen is broken. The values obtained can be used for quality control or to differentiate general toughness. 


Notched Izod Impact is a single point test that measures a materials resistance to impact from a swinging pendulum. Izod impact is defined as the kinetic energy needed to initiate fracture and continue the fracture until the specimen is broken. Izod specimens are notched to prevent deformation of the specimen upon impact. This test can be used as a quick and easy quality control check to determine if a material meets specific impact properties or to compare materials for general toughness.

Charpy and IZOD test introduction

Charpy Test: The specimen is mounted horizontally and supported unclamped at both ends. The hammer is released and allowed to strike through the specimen. If breakage does not occur, a heavier hammer is used until failure occurs. 

Charpy impact test Specimen size of ISO 179:

Specimens are 80 x 10mm by thickness. The specimens can be either notched or unnotched. 


IZOD Test: The specimen is clamped into the pendulum impact test fixture with the notched side facing the striking edge of the pendulum. The pendulum is released and allowed to strike through the specimen. If breakage does not occur, a heavier hammer is used until failure occurs. Since many materials (especially thermoplastics) exhibit lower impact strength at reduced temperatures, it is sometimes appropriate to test materials at temperatures that simulate the intended end use environment. 

Izod impact test Specimen size of ISO 180:

Thestandard specimen for ISO is a Type 1A multipurpose specimen with the end tabs cut off. The resulting test sample measures 80 x 10 x 4 mm. The depth under the notch of the specimen is 8mm.
