Polyolefin pipes for the conveyance of fluids. Determination of resistance to crack propagation. Test method for slow crack growth on notched pipes (notch test) (British Standard)
This International Standard specifies a method of test for determining the resistance to slow crack growth of polyolefin pipes, expressed in terms of time to failure in a hydrostatic pressure test on a pipe with machined longitudinal notches in the outside surface. The test is applicable to pipes of wall thickness greater than 5 mm.
