1 Scope
This part of EN 820 describes methods for determining the elastic moduli, specifically Young's modulus,
shear modulus and Poisson's ratio, of advanced monolithic technical ceramics at temperatures above
room temperature. The standard prescribes three alternative methods for determining some or all of
these three parameters:
A the determination of Young's modulus by static flexure of a thin beam in three- or four-point
bending.
B the determination of Young's modulus by forced longitudinal resonance, or Young's modulus,
shear modulus and Poisson's ratio by forced flexural and torsional resonance, of a thin beam.
C the determination of Young's modulus from the fundamental natural frequency of a struck bar
(impulse excitation method).
This part of EN 820 extends the above-defined room-temperature methods described in EN 843-2 to
elevated temperatures. All the test methods assume the use of homogeneous test pieces of linear elastic
materials. The test assumes that the test piece has isotropic elastic properties. At high porosity levels all
of the methods can become inappropriate. The maximum grain size (see EN 623-3), excluding
deliberately added whiskers, should be less than 10 % of the minimum dimension of the test piece.
NOTE 1 Method C in EN 843-2 based on ultrasonic time of flight measurement has not been incorporated into
this part of EN 820. Although the method is feasible to apply, it is specialised, and outside the capabilities of most
laboratories. There are also severe restrictions on test piece geometries and methods of achieving pulse
transmission. For these reasons this method has not been included in EN 820-5.
NOTE 2 The upper temperature limit for this test depends on the properties of the test pieces, and can be
limited by softening within the timescale of the test. In addition, for method A there can be limits defined by the
choice of test jig construction materials.
NOTE 3 Methods B and C may not be appropriate for materials with significant levels of porosity (i.e. > 15 %)
which cause damping and an inability to detect resonances or natural frequencies, respectively.
NOTE 4 This method does not provide for the effects of thermal expansion, i.e. the measurements are based
on room temperature dimensions. Depending upon the use to which the data are put, it can be necessary to
make a further correction by multiplying each dimensional factor in the relevant equations by a factor (1 + α ∆T)
where α is the mean linear expansion coefficient over the temperature interval ∆T from room temperature.

3 Terms and definitions
For the purposes of this document, the following terms and definitions apply.
3.1
Young's modulus
stress required in a material to produce unit strain in uniaxial extension or compression
3.2
shear modulus
shear stress required in a material to produce unit angular distortion
3.3
Poisson's ratio
negative value of the ratio of lateral strain to longitudinal strain in an elastic body stressed longitudinally

elastic moduli determined in an isothermal condition by stressing statically or quasistatically
3.5

4 Method A: Static bending method
4.1 Principle
Using three- or four-point bending of a thin beam test piece, the elastic distortion is measured, from which
Young's modulus may be calculated according to thin beam equations.
4.2 Apparatus
4.2.1 Test jig, in accordance with that described in EN 820-1 for flexural strength testing at elevated
temperatures in terms of its function, i.e. the support and loading rollers shall be free to roll, and to
articulate to ensure axial and even loading as described in EN 843-1. The test jig shall be made of
materials which do not interact with the test piece and which remain essentially elastic at the
maximum test temperature. A typical arrangement is shown in Figure 1.
NOTE 1 Articulation is not essential for carefully machined flat and parallel-faced test pieces.
The outer span of the test jig shall be 40 mm or greater.

SIST EN 820-5:2009
EN 820-5:2009 (E)
NOTE 2 If the displacement is to be measured by method 1 (see 4.2.5), a span of up to 100 mm, or a span to
thickness ratio in excess of 20, is recommended to obtain large displacements and to ensure that the compliance
of the machine is a small correction if displacement is recorded as a machine cross-head movement.
The test jig may be either for three-point or four-point flexure. The latter method is required if
displacement is determined by differential transducer.
4.2.2 Mechanical testing machine, capable of applying a force to the test jig at a constant
displacement rate. The test machine shall be equipped for recording the load applied to the test jig at
any point in time. The accuracy of the test machine shall be in accordance with EN ISO 7500-1,
Grade 1 (1 % of indicated load), and shall be capable of recording to a sensitivity of better than 0,1 %
of the maximum load employed.
4.2.3 Thermal enclosure and control system, surrounding the test piece, capable of achieving the
maximum desired temperature and maintaining it to ± 2 °C for test temperatures up to 1 000 °C, and
± 4 °C at higher temperatures.
NOTE The system can operate with an air or inert atmosphere, or with a vacuum inside the thermal
enclosure. Especially with regard to use in vacuum, efforts should be made to ensure that the force applied at the
test piece is correctly recorded by the load cell outside the enclosure, taking account of friction or elastic
resistances in seals or bellows systems.
4.2.4 Thermocouple, conforming to EN 60584-2 for measuring the test piece temperature. The
thermocouple shall be in close proximity to but shall not touch the test piece.
4.2.5 Displacement measuring device, for recording the displacement of the loaded test piece by
one of two methods:
Method 1 Recording the apparent displacements of the test machine as the test piece is loaded in
the test jig, and again with the test piece replaced by a ceramic bar at least 15 mm thick
with flat and parallel faces to within 0,05 mm. The difference between these
displacements is equivalent to the displacement of the test piece in the test jig. The
displacement recording device (chart recorder, digital indicator, etc.) shall be calibrated
by comparing machine cross-head displacement with the movement indicated on a dial
gauge contacting the cross-head, or other suitable calibrated displacement measuring
device. The dial gauge shall be in accordance with ISO 463, or the alternative device
otherwise certified as accurate to 0,01 mm.
The parts of the load train subjected to elevated temperatures shall be made of
materials which remain elastic at the maximum test temperature.
Method 2 Recording the displacement of the test piece directly using a transducer extensometer
contacting at least two defined points on the surface of the test piece between the
support loading rollers in three-point or four-point bending. The defined points shall
preferably be:
− for four-point bending: the centre of the span and one or both loading rollers
(see for example Figure 1, right);
− for three-point bending: the centre of the span and one or both support rollers
(see for example Figure 1, left).
NOTE The equations given in 4.5 assume these preferred positions. Other displacement
detection positions require alternative formulations.
The transducer shall be capable of detecting movements with an accuracy of 0,001 mm,
shall have output linear to 1 % over the expected displacement range in making this test
and its sensitivity shall be calibrated to an accuracy of 0,1 %.

EN 820-5:2009 (E)
The extensometer parts subjected to elevated temperatures shall remain elastic to the
maximum test temperature, and their tips shall not interact with the test piece (see also
EN 820-1).
4.2.6 Micrometer, in accordance with ISO 3611, capable of recording to 0,01 mm.
4.2.7 Dial gauge, conforming to ISO 463, or other suitable calibrated displacement measuring
device, capable of recording to 0,01 mm.

4.3 Test pieces
Test pieces shall be rectangular section bars selected and prepared by agreement between parties. They
may be directly prepared close to final dimensions or machined from larger blocks. This test measures
Young's modulus parallel to the length of the test piece. If the test material is likely to be elastically
anisotropic, care shall be taken in selection of the test piece orientation and in the interpretation of the test
results.
The length of the test pieces shall be at least 10 mm longer than the test-jig span. The width of the test
piece shall be in the range 4 mm to 10 mm. For method 1, the thickness of the test piece shall be in the
range 0,8 mm to 1,5 mm. For method 2, the test piece may be up to 3 mm thick, but preferably should be
in the range 1 mm to 2 mm thick. The test pieces shall be machined to final dimensions. They shall be flat
and parallel-faced to better than ± 0,5 % of thickness on the faces to be placed on the loading rollers of
the test jig. They shall similarly be machined flat and parallel-faced to better than ± 0,5 % of width on the
side faces. For method 1 they shall not be chamfered. For method 2 they may be chamfered as specified
in EN 843-1.
At least three test pieces shall be prepared.
4.4 Procedure
Measure the width and thickness of the test pieces at several places and record the average values.
Insert a test piece in the test-jig and centralise it in accordance with the requirements of EN 843-1. Select
a maximum force to be applied to the test piece which will avoid fracture.
NOTE 1 The upper level of force can be estimated by employing the strength calculation in EN 843-1:2006,
Clause 8, and inserting a stress level of no more than 0,5 σ , where σ is the mean fracture stress expected at the
f f
test temperature.
Heat the thermal enclosure to the required test temperature and allow the temperature to stabilize such
that the thermocouple recording test piece temperature varies by no more than 2 °C in a 15 min period up
to 1 000 °C, and by no more than 4 °C at higher temperatures.
Apply a steadily increasing force to the test jig at a constant test machine cross-head displacement rate in
the range 0,001 mm/min to 0,5 mm/min. Record the load and displacement (either cross-head
displacement, or transducer displacement output) continuously. When the maximum selected force is
achieved, reverse the direction of the machine and reduce the load to zero. Repeat the cycle at least
twice more to the same peak load, or until repeatable results are obtained. Repeat the test on each test
piece. If the machine displacement is to be employed (method 1) or if the transducer method is employed
using a support roller as one of the defined points (method 2), replace the test piece with the thick
parallel-sided steel (for use to 300 °C) or ceramic bar and repeat the loading cycles to the same peak
load, recording load and displacement.
NOTE 2 The use of both loading and unloading cycles is required in order to take into account machine
hysteresis in method 1, transducer hysteresis in method 2.
4.5 Calculation of results
4.5.1 From cross-head displacement (Method 1)
Inspect the recordings of load and displacement for the test piece and the thick steel or ceramic bar for
uniformity and linearity. Select a region of the recordings from a minimum load of not less than 10 % of
peak load or 0,2 N, whichever is the greater, to a maximum load of not more than 90 % of the peak load
applied. The same load range shall be selected for each loading cycle on the test piece and the thick bar.

---------------------- Page: 11 ----------------------
SIST EN 820-5:2009
EN 820-5:2009 (E)
NOTE 1 The region of the recordings selected should avoid strong non-linearities at low load which may
include irreproducible effects of machine movement and test piece alignment, and also the effects of cross-head
reversal near peak load.
NOTE 2 If the force - displacement traces show evidence of a reduction of stiffness at upper load levels, this
can be taken as evidence of plastic softening. At this temperature and any higher test temperature, the results of
the test should be deemed invalid.
Calculate or measure the displacement recorded over the selected load range for each loading and
unloading cycle for the test piece and for the thick bar. Calculate the average displacement in each
direction. If the displacement of the first cycle is more than 2 % different from that of the second or
subsequent cycle, ignore the first cycle when computing the average.
NOTE 3 The first cycle can show a different response to subsequent cycles as the test piece beds down into
the test jig and the machine movement stabilizes.

Calculate the average Young's modulus figures for the loading and unloading curves. If these values
differ by more than 2 %, repeat the tests. If they differ by less than 2 %, take the overall average as the
determined value from the test.
4.5.2 From transducer displacement measurements (Method 2)
Use the procedure defined in 4.5.1 to obtain displacements for a defined load range. If one of the defined
points for the transducer contact in three-point bending is the support roller, calculate the displacement
recorded for the thick bar. Subtract the mean value of the thick bar displacement from the mean
specimen displacement over the same load range for both loading and unloading.
NOTE 1 If the force - displacement traces show evidence of a reduction of stiffness at upper load levels, this
can be taken as evidence of plastic softening. At this temperature and any higher test temperature, the results of
the test should be deemed invalid.
For three-point bending using defined points at the span centre and one or both support rollers, calculate
Young's modulus using Equation 1.
For four-point bending using defined points at the span centre and one or both loading rollers, calculate
Young's modulus from the formula:

Calculate the average Young's modulus figures for the loading and unloading parts of the cycles. If these
values differ by more than 2 %, repeat the tests. If they differ by less than 2 %, take the overall average
as the determined value from the test.
4.6 Accuracy and interferences
A simple analysis based on the flexure equation can be used to show that the principal sources of error
are in measuring the force range (P – P ), the thickness of the test piece b, and the deflection d or
2 1 t
(d - d ). In contrast, measurement of temperature, test span and test piece width play only a minor role.
c s
The following analysis is based on the conditions specified for this method, but the overall error is
dependent on the choice of equipment, the accuracy of calibration, and the repeatability of mechanical
contact between the system and the test piece. Assuming that the accuracy of recording the force is
limited to ± 1 % by the calibration accuracy of the load cell in the test machine, the noise in the output,
and any reading error if a chart recorder is used, the error in (P – P ) is likely to be of the order ± 2 %.
2 1
The error in measuring the thickness of the test piece using a micrometer as specified above is probably
± 0,01 mm, allowing also for test piece roughness, flatness and parallelism, or typically ± 1 % of the
recommended thickness. The error in measuring the deflection depends not only on the linearity and
accuracy of calibration of the crosshead movement or displacement transducer, but also on the
repeatability of contact of the test piece with the measuring system and the minimization of friction effects.
Assuming that the test is made to a maximum force equivalent to approximately half the fracture force of
a test piece which fails at a strain of 0,1 %, it can be shown that the test piece
