Impact tests
Izod
- Specimen placed in vertical direction
- Hammer hits the surface where the crack is located
- specimen are clamped
Charphy
- Specimen placed in horizontal direction
- hammer hit the surface opposite from the crack
- specimen are supported

-
Toughnening mechnism
Crack deflection
Presence of particles, weak plane, grain boundaries in the microstructure
More energy is absorbed
Cracks forced to move in direction not perpendicular to applied stress, reducing the intensity at the crack tip
