Plastic and polymer testing

Mechanical testing of polymers

Understanding the mechanical properties of polymers and plastic materials is critical in allowing product developers to know how their material performs in the desired application. Measurlabs offers mechanical testing for all kinds of plastic and polymeric materials ranging from tensile, flexural, compression, shear, creep, dynamic (DMA), friction, scratch, hardness, fatigue, impact properties, and many more. Depending on the product, the test method can be chosen from various testing standards or by using custom methods.

Airplane wing composite testing

Mechanical testing of composites

Composite products often need to comply with demanding quality standards of various industries, such as the automotive, construction, and aerospace industries. Measurlabs can offer industry-specific destructive and non-destructive (NDT) composite testing to determine properties such as tensile strength, hardness, toughness, impact strength and compressive strength, and to detect underlying defects in the structure.

Cardboard boxes

Mechanical testing of paper, paperboard and corrugated cardboard

At Measurlabs we offer testing of paper, board and packaging materials according to ASTM, ISO, DIN and TAPPI standards. Our service includes measurements such as bursting strength, SCT, ECT, FCT, bending stiffness, internal bond strength, air permeance, tensile strength, optical properties, and many others that are essential in the quality assurance of existing products and product development of novel biobased materials.

Textile colour fastness

Mechanical testing of textiles

Textile testing plays an important role in making sure that the product is suitable for its designated end-use application and complies with the required specifications. Measurlabs offers a wide selection of mechanical testing for textiles, ranging from single fiber tests to testing of readily assembled clothing.

Metal testing / roof

Mechanical testing of metals

Metallic components, especially those used in construction and load-bearing structures, often need to meet strict mechanical specifications. We at Measurlabs offer a wide range of mechanical testing for your metallic products. Some of our methods include tensile testing, fatigue testing, coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) determination, creep testing, and hardness testing.
