8、 reference materials.5.Significance and Use5.1 Dynamic mechanical analyzers monitor changes in theviscoelastic properties of a material as a function of tempera-ture and frequency,providing a means to quantify thesechanges.In most cases,the value to be assigned is thetemperature of the transition(or
9、 event)under study.Therefore,the temperature axis(abscissa)of all DMA thermal curvesmust be accurately calibrated by adjusting the apparent tem-perature scale to match the actual temperature over thetemperature range of interest.6.Interferences6.1 An increase or decrease in heating rates or change i
10、npurge gas type or rate from those specified may alter results.6.2 Once the temperature calibration procedure has beenexecuted,the measuring temperature sensor position shall notbe changed,nor shall it be in contact with the specimen orspecimen holder in a way that would impede movement.If thetemper
11、ature sensor position is changed or is replaced,then theentire calibration procedure shall be repeated.6.3 Once the temperature calibration has been executed,thegeometry deformation(bending study,versus tensile,and thelike)shall not be changed.If the specimen testing geometrydiffers significantly fr
12、om that of the calibrants,then thecalibration shall be repeated in the geometry matching that ofspecimen testing.6.4 This method does not apply to calibration for shear orcompressive geometries of deformation.7.Apparatus7.1 The function of the apparatus is to hold a specimen ofuniform dimension so t
