CEN/TS 1071-9:2004 (E)
Introduction
The fracture strain of a coating is a critical factor often determining the performance of a coated product.
Clearly if stressed either directly or due to thermal effects (thermal expansion coefficient mismatch between
the coating and substrate) coating cracking can occur if the critical fracture stress/strain is exceeded, and in
many cases the effectiveness of the coating will be reduced. For example, corrosion resistant coatings loose
their protective character if cracking occurs, and optical coatings become ineffective when cracked. In many
cases cracking is the first stage of a much more serious form of failure in which large areas of the coating can
spall.
The extent to which coated components can withstand external applied loads is an important property in the
application of any coated system, and usually the failure stress is required. For calculation of the stress both
the fracture strain and Young’s modulus of the coating should be known. CEN/TS 1071-7 can be used to
measure the Young’s modulus by depth sensing indentation, but there are other methods involving flexure
and impact excitation that may also be applied [1], [2]

1 Scope
This part of EN 1071 describes a method of measuring the fracture strain of ceramic coatings by means of
uniaxial tension or compression tests coupled with acoustic emission to monitor the onset of cracking of the
coating. Tensile or compressive strains can also be applied by flexure using four-point bending.
Measurements can be made in favourable cases at elevated temperatures as well as at room temperature.

3.7
AE threshold
arbitrary AE amplitude at which AE hits are deemed to be significant and above the AE signals generated by
the test equipment
3.8
waveguide
metallic wire connecting (usually by spot welding) the sample to the AE transducer
4 Significance and use
This test procedure covers the measurement of fracture strain in tension or compression in coatings subject to
mechanical stress at ambient or elevated temperature.
The method is applicable to cases where the substrate is sufficiently ductile such that fracture of the coating
occurs before the substrate. In addition, if during plastic deformation of the substrate acoustic signals are
generated, this may interfere with those caused by coating fracture. Where possible it is recommended that a
test be carried out with the uncoated substrate to determine whether such extraneous AE signals occur.
5 Principle
Specimens of appropriate geometry are submitted to a mechanical stress; the subsequent strain is measured
and the onset of coating failure is detected. The test draws upon the expertise of standard tensile and
compressive tests but requires additional care due to the precision required of the measurements. The
applied stress may be tensile or compressive and may be applied directly or in flexure. The test shall be
carried out to satisfy the requirements of accepted standards for mechanical testing of materials under the
selected method of loading.
NOTE 1 Detection of the fracture of coatings can be carried in a number of ways. The most convenient is to use
acoustic emission (AE), which allows continuous monitoring of the specimen. Acoustic signals are produced when a crack
forms. These signals are captured using suitable detectors and the signals generated are then analysed. In many cases
a waveguide is used to carry the signal from the specimen to the detector; this waveguide is normally a metallic material.
Use of two AE detectors can help to eliminate extraneous signals coming from the loading mechanism. Commercially
available AE systems can be used for this work.
NOTE 2 Where AE cannot be used, crack detection is possible by high resolution video systems, which may allow
continuous monitoring. Alternatively, optical or scanning electron microscopy can be used to examine the samples.
Normally this is done post-test, but in situ examination is also possible.
6 Apparatus and materials
6.1 Instrumentation
6.1.1 In simplest terms the equipment required is a mechanism to apply load to the specimen;
extensometry to measure the strain; and apparatus to detect/monitor fracture of the surface layer. Load is
normally applied continuously through servo-electric testing machines; the load capacity of the frame should
be sufficient to allow straining of the specimen to beyond the yield point of the substrate material.
Continuation of the test to complete separation of the specimen is not normally required.
6.1.2 For flexural testing a suitable test jig is required – four-point bending is recom
