BS EN ISO 899-1:2017 specifies a method for determining the tensile creep of plastics in the form of standard
test specimens under specified conditions such as those of pretreatment, temperature and humidity.
The method is suitable for use with rigid and semi-rigid non-reinforced, filled and fibre-reinforced
plastics materials in the form of dumb-bell-shaped test specimens moulded directly or machined from
sheets or moulded articles.
The method is intended to provide data for engineering-design and research and development purposes.
Data for engineering-design purposes requires the use of extensometers to measure the gauge length
of the specimen. Data for research or quality-control purposes may use the change in distance between
the grips (nominal extension).
Tensile creep can vary significantly with differences in specimen preparation and dimensions and in
the test environment. The thermal history of the test specimen can also have profound effects on its
creep behaviour (see Annex A). Consequently, when precise comparative results are required, these
factors are intended to be carefully controlled.
If tensile-creep properties are used for engineering-design purposes, the plastics materials are intended
to be tested over a broad range of stresses, times and environmental conditions.
