3.1 Vickers hardness
value obtained by dividing the applied force by the surface area of the indentation computed from the mean of the measured diagonals of the indentations, assuming that the indentation is an imprint of the undeformed indenter
Note 1 to entry: Vickers hardness may be expressed in two different units:
a) with unit GPa, obtained by dividing the applied force in N by the surface area of the indentation in mm 2 ;
b) Vickers hardness number, obtained by dividing the applied force in kgf by the surface area of the indentation in mm 2
3.2 Vickers indenter
indenter in the shape of a right-angle pyramid with a square base and an angle between opposite faces of 136°
Note 1 to entry: See Table 1 and Figure 1.
3.3 Knoop hardness
value obtained by dividing the applied force by the projected area of the indentation computed from the measurement of the long diagonal of the indentation, assuming that the indentation is an imprint of the undeformed indenter
Note 1 to entry: The Knoop hardness may be expressed in two different units:
a) with units of GPa, obtained by dividing the applied force in N by the projected area of the indentation in mm 2 ;
b) Knoop hardness number, obtained by dividing the applied force in kgf by the projected area of the indentation in mm 2 , without units specified.
3.4 Knoop indenter indenter in the shape of a rhombic-based pyramid with the two angles between the opposite edges at
172,5° and 130°
Note 1 to entry: See Table 3 and Figure 6.
