Additional Information
All physical properties were measured on specimens cut from compression molded plaques per ASTM D 4703, Procedure A, Type I and conditioned at 23°C (73°F) for a minimum of 40 hours per ASTM D 618 prior to testing. All stress/strain tests used specimens cut with a Type C die and tested with a grip separation of 25 mm (1") and a crosshead speed of 20 in/min. Tensile set was determined from a specimen held at 100% strain for 10 minutes and allowed to rest for 10 minutes.
