[...].. .Mechanical Tests and Polymer Transitions 3 II MECHANICAL TESTS There are a bewildering number ofmechanical tests and testing instruments Most of these tests are very specialized and have not been officially recognized as standardized tests Some of these tests, however, have been standardized and are described in the publications of the American Society for Testing and Materials ( 1 ) Many of the...
