Polymer Mechanical Testing Services

Mechanical testing of polymers is used to determine the mechanical properties of a polymeric material. It can be used to evaluate a material independent of its geometry and also at defined geometrical conditions. There are a wide variety of mechanical testing methods that can be performed when evaluating a material, but the goals for testing are common: Obtain material properties and characterizations for Finite Element Analysis. Check the quality of your cure cycle with simple tests such as tensile testing and short beam shear. Test different material lots or batches for comparison.
