1、Designation:C83982(Reapproved 2015)Standard Test Method forCompressive Stress of Porcelain Enamels by Loaded-BeamMethod1This standard is issued under the fixed designation C839;the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or,in the case of revision,the year
2、 of last revision.A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.Asuperscript epsilon()indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.INTRODUCTIONMany methods and tests have been used in the industry to determine the relative compressive stressof porcelain enamel
3、ground coats and cover coats.Three methods have been most commonly used.They are loaded-beam,warp,and split-ring methods.In the loaded-beam method the measure of stressis the load required to bring a specimen back to a plane after it has been bowed by controlledapplication of the enamel under test t
4、o one side of the specimen.The degree of the deflection of aspecimen from a plane caused by controlled application of enamel to one side is the indicatingmeasure of stress in the warp test.The indicating measurement in the split-ring test is the forcerequired to just open a split ring after controll
