Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies
(ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO
technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been
established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and
non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the
International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards
adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an
International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent
rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
ISO 22088-5 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 61, Plastics, Subcommittee SC 6, Ageing,
chemical and environmental resistance.
ISO 22088 consists of the following parts, under the general title Plastics — Determination of resistance to
environmental stress cracking (ESC):
⎯ Part 1: General guidance
⎯ Part 2: Constant tensile load method (replacement of ISO 6252:1992)
⎯ Part 3: Bent strip method (replacement of ISO 4599:1986)
⎯ Part 4: Ball or pin impression method (replacement of ISO 4600:1992)
⎯ Part 5: Constant tensile deformation method (new test method)
⎯ Part 6: Slow strain rate method (new test method)

Plastics — Determination of resistance to environmental stress
cracking (ESC) —
Part 5:
Constant tensile deformation method
1 Scope
This part of ISO 22088 specifies a method for the determination of the environmental stress cracking (ESC)
behaviour of thermoplastics when they are subjected to a constant tensile deformation in the presence of a
chemical medium.
It is applicable to test specimens prepared by moulding and/or machining and can be used for the assessment
of the ESC behaviour of plastic materials exposed to different environments, as well as for the determination
of the ESC behaviour of different plastic materials exposed to a specific environment.
This is essentially a ranking test and is not intended to provide data to be used for design or performance
prediction.
NOTE Alternative methods for the determination of environmental stress cracking by means of a constant-strain test
are specified in ISO 22088-3 and ISO 22088-4. A method for the dete
