I am from the darkside - plastics!

I'm trying to get a definitive value for the above alloy - have looked at dozens of data sheets and the impact strength seems to be omitted for metals, but it usually specified for plastics.
Plastics are usually defined as Charpy rather than Izod test, notched and un-notched.
If anyone could point me in the direction of a value for LM25 I would appreciate it. (I guess metals are less notch sensitive, so I suspect that notched values are never quoted)

Cheers
