Tensile test according to ISO 527
The methods of the standard
The general principles are described in the test standard ISO 527-1, while the tests are described in parts 2 to 5.
- Part 1: General principles
- Part 2: Test conditions for moulding and extrusion compounds
- Part 3: Test conditions for films and sheets
- Part 4: Test conditions for isotropic and anisotropic fibre-reinforced plastic composites
- Part 5: Test conditions for unidirectional fibre-reinforced plastic composites

The corresponding US standard is ASTM D638.
ISO527 describes the determination of the characteristic values E (modulus of elasticity), Rp (yield stress), Rm (tensile strength), A (elongation at break), μ (Poisson’s ratio) using a tensile test.
Two methods are described:
- Method A (without extensometer)
- Method B (with extensometer)
