3、rmination of the tem-perature at which an arbitrary deformation occurs when speci-mens are subjected to an arbitrary set of testing conditions.1.2 This test method applies to molded and sheet materialsavailable in thicknesses of 3 mm(18in.)or greater and whichare rigid or semirigid at normal tempera
4、ture.NOTE1Sheet stock less than 3 mm(0.125 in.)but more than 1 mm(0.040 in.)in thickness may be tested by use of a composite sample havinga minimum thickness of 3 mm.The laminae must be of uniform stressdistribution.One type of composite specimen has been prepared bycementing the ends of the laminae
5、 together and then smoothing the edgeswith sandpaper.The direction of loading shall be perpendicular to theedges of the individual laminae.1.3 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded asstandard.The values given in parentheses are for informationonly.1.4 Some older machines still use mercury
