We Make A Material Difference
we make a material difference
DENSITY
ASTM D792
PURPOSE:
To determine the mass per volume of a given plastic
GARDNER IMPACT
ASTM D5420
PURPOSE:
Since plastics are viscoelastic, they may be sensitive to changes in velocity of weights falling on their surfaces. The Gardner Impact tests this velocity at specific weights.
IZOD IMPACT
ASTM D256
PURPOSE:
Determines how much impact a material can withstand
MOISTURE ANALYZER
PURPOSE:
The total moisture level in a sample.
MELT FLOW
ASTM D1238
PURPOSE:
Determines the viscosity of materials at low shear rate; indication of molecular weight
FLEX AND TENSILE
ASTM D638 and ASTM D790
PURPOSE:
Determine brittle or ductile characteristics while also finding breaking point when applying pressure.
ESCR: Environmental stress test used primarily for irrigation piping to determine how solvents affect polymers over time
GARDNER IMPACT: Since plastics are viscoelastic, they may be sensitive to changes in velocity of weights falling on their surfaces. The Gardner Impact test finds this velocity at specific weights
