BRINELL HARDNESS
TEST
Knoop
Hardness is measured by pressing a hard steel ball into the surface of the test piece
using a known load.
Brinell
A steel ball indenter of (10, 5, 1mm) diameter, indent into the surface of a metal with
fixed load of 500kg (4.905kN), 1500kg (14.715kN) or 3000kg (29.43kN) and
remained for 10 to 15 seconds.
Vickers
Combination of load (P) and ball size (D) must be accurate to avoid distortion.
Rockwell
P = K where K is constant

Requires the use of extremely low loads, careful surface preparation of the specimen
and measurement of indentation at higher magnification.

KNOOP HARDNESS
TEST
Knoop indenter is a diamond ground to a pyramidal form that produces a diamondshaped indentation with the long and short diagonals by using 25g to 5kg of loads.
The indenter size is between 0.01 to 0.1mm, the length of the indent is seven times
longer than its width and almost 30 times bigger than its depth.

IMPACT
Impact is the force or energy of a collision of two objects.
Toughness is a measurement of the amount of energy a
material can absorb before fracturing.
Method of measurement:
The basic test requires applying the force in a consistent manner, without shock, and
measuring the hardness (depth of the indentation).
If a timed hardness is desired, force is applied for the required time and then read.
The material under test should be a minimum of 6.4 mm (0.25 inches) thick.

IMPACT TEST
Principle :
Striking a specimen with a controlled
pendulum and measuring the energy
absorbed in bending or breaking the
specimen.
The energy value indicates the
toughness of the material.

Effect of temperature to
impact toughness
It can be seen that at low temperatures the material is more brittle and
impact toughness is low. At high temperatures the material is more ductile
and impact toughness is higher.
The transition temperature is the boundary between brittle and ductile
behaviour.

TENSILE
Tensile indicates how the material will react to forces being
applied in tension.
A tensile test is a fundamental mechanical test where a
carefully prepared specimen is loaded in a controlled manner
while measuring the applied load and the elongation of the
specimen over some distance.
