Tensile testing on a coir composite. Specimen size is not to standard (Instron). Tensile testing, also known as tension testing, [1] is a fundamental materials science and engineering test in which a sample is subjected to a controlled tension until failure.

A compact tension specimen (CT) is a type of standard notched specimen in accordance with ASTM [1] and ISO [2] standards. Compact tension specimens are used extensively in the area of fracture mechanics and corrosion testing, in order to establish fracture toughness and fatigue crack growth data for a material.
In general, such tests set out to obtain geometry-independent properties; i.e. those intrinsic to the bulk material. In practice this is not always feasible, since even in tensile tests, certain properties can be influenced by specimen size and/or geometry. Here is a listing of some of the most common tests: [2] Hardness Testing
English: Cylindrical tensile specimen B6×30 according to German standard DIN 50125 – for tensile testing. Français : Éprouvette cylindrique de traction B6×30 selon la norme allemande DIN 50125 - pour un essai de traction .
It is also used in testing a specimen, for a process where the crosshead moves to load the specimen to a specified value before a test starts. Data is not captured during the preload segment. When tensile specimens are initially placed into testing grips, they can be subjected to small compressive forces. These forces can cause specimens to ...
The ultimate tensile strength of a material is an intensive property; therefore its value does not depend on the size of the test specimen.However, depending on the material, it may be dependent on other factors, such as the preparation of the specimen, the presence or otherwise of surface defects, and the temperature of the test environment and material.
