Definition |
| Tensile Modulus |
Slope of the stress-strain curve between two specified strains (ε1=0.0005 and ε2=0.0025) |
| Tensile Strain at Break |
Tensile strain corresponding to the point of rupture. |
| Tensile Strength |
Maximum tensile stress sustained by the specimen during a test. |
| Tensile Stress at Yield |
Tensile stress at which an increase in strain occurs without an increase in stress (yield point). |
Two sets of specimens are tested for anisotropic materials, the first set parallel to the direction of polymer orientation (MD - machine direction) and the second set perpendicular to the direction of polymer orientation (TD - transverse direction).
