(Test Method)Standard Test Method for Measurement of Glass Stress—Optical Coefficient
Standard Test Method for Measurement of Glass Stress—Optical Coefficient
SIGNIFICANCE AND USE
Stress-optical coefficients are used in the determination of stress in glass. They are particularly useful in determining the magnitude of thermal residual stresses for annealing or pre-stressing (tempering) glass. As such, they can be important in specification acceptance.
SCOPE
1.1 This test method covers procedures for determining the stress-optical coefficient of glass, which is used in photoelastic analyses. In Procedure A the optical retardation is determined for a glass fiber subjected to uniaxial tension. In Procedure B the optical retardation is determined for a beam of glass of rectangular cross section when subjected to four-point bending. In Procedure C, the optical retardation is measured for a beam of glass of rectangular cross-section when subjected to uniaxial compression.
1.2 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.

4.1.1 Procedure A— Figs. 1 and 2 illustrate a polarimeter employing a quarter-wave plate and rotatable analyzer, described in
Test Method F218. The quarter-wave plate shall be designed for the wavelength of the light being used. The polarizing axes of
the polarizer and analyzer shall be set at right angles to each other with each being located at an angle of 45° with the horizontal
and vertical.The analyzer, however, shall be mounted in a rotatable mount having a scale graduated on either side from 0 to 180°.
The quarter-wave plate shall be fixed to give maximum extinction when the polarizer and analyzer are crossed at right angles; that
is, when its polarizing axes are set at 45° and 135° to the horizontal and vertical. In place of the immersion cell E, a means of
supporting and loading a glass specimen shall be provided, either in air (Fig. 3(a)) or in an immersion liquid (Fig. 3(b)). In this
arrangement the optical elements of the polarimeter between light source and telescope have been reversed and a large scale
graduated in 2-nm divisions is employed with the rotatable analyzer I.
4.1.1.1 Fig. 3 illustrates the fiber-stressing and optical arrangement used in ProcedureA. Figure 3(a) shows the fiber mounted
vertically, positioned, and supported by two brass collars with swivel handles so that the kilogram weight may be applied to load
the fiber. A light shield having entrance and exit slits surrounds the fiber providing a degree of collimation to the light passing
