Question about tensile testing
I was informed that only type IV specimens in tensile testing of plastics according to ASTM D638 are accredited by ISO 17025. May I know why that is?

No reference materials are accredited by ISO 17025. The laboratory must determine the reference material/specimen criteria for any standard methods used, and ensure these are complied with. I cannot comment specifically on a sector requirement.
