Estimating the Quality of Polymers by Xenon Testing

Image
  Polymer materials are one of the major consumption used worldwide. Polymer substances are used in our daily life. The world is empty without polymer consumptions. Polymer manufacturers earn a lot of money from the products. So, to earn more, they should have to maintain the quality of polymer products so that they don’t face any damage. Polymer products are mainly affected by three major factors which are: moisture, temperature and solar radiation. To prevent damage to polymer products, manufacturers test them from different testing scenarios before selling them in the market. Like other testing chambers, One of the beneficial tools for testing polymer products is the  xenon arc test chamber . Let us tell you the role of a weathering tester in testing polymer products. Importance of Weathering Tests A  xenon aging test chamber  is a specialized piece of equipment used in materials testing, particularly for evaluating the durability and performance of vario...

Hours for a Salt Spray Test – A Full Guide

Image
  A Salt spray test is conducted to test the resistance of metals and coatings against corrosion. Corrosion affects the coatings of metals badly and changes their properties, so it’s important to test the corrosion resistance properties of the materials before selling them in the market. This test is conducted by using a  salt spray chamber . There are different types of salt spray test chambers that are being used according to the specific test type. Moreover, the period for the salt spray test is according to the sample to be tested. There are different periods for conducting salt spray tests. Let us discuss. What is the 720-hour salt spray test? In the 720-hour salt spray test, the sample is exposed to the test chamber for 720 hours. The temperature of the test is set to +35°C +1.1°C/ -1.7°C. Moreover, the compound used in the test is 5% sodium chloride and 95% water. In this test, users will have to wait for 720 hours until the exposure of salt spray. What...

Using a Box Compression Tester to Find Packaging Design Defects

Image
  Product protection during storage and transit is greatly aided by packaging . But if the structural integrity of the packaging is damaged, even the most well-thought-out packaging might collapse under stress. In order to find package design flaws before it's too late, a box compression tester is essential in this situation. Overview of the Box Compression Tester A specific Effective Lab India equipment called a Digital Box Compression Tester is used to assess the compressive strength of packaging containers, cartons, and corrugated boxes. It replicates the handling, stacking, and transit circumstances these packages experience. Value of Packaging Design Not only can good package design make items seem better, but it also protects them from things like dampness, impact, and compression. A well-designed packaging improves consumer happiness and brand reputation in addition to maintaining the product's quality. Comprehending the Box Compression Tester ...

What are the effects of a warm humid environment on materials?

Image
  The concentration of water vapours in the air is termed as humidity. These water vapours are in a gaseous state which cannot be seen with the human eye. These vapours cause fog, dew and precipitation.  There are three different types of humidity which are: Absolute, Relative and Specific in the  Humidity Chamber . However, in this blog, we’ll share some information on the effects of humidity on different materials. As humidity is the presence of water vapours in the air and excess, a warm and humid environment is created which may affect different materials used in daily life.  Humidity affects different materials such as: Metals get corrosive and rust in high humidity. It May affect the electrical conductivity of some metals. Humidity affects wood in several ways. In high humid conditions, wood gets cracked, swell, warp or decay. However, splitting and shrinkage may occur in low humidity. It also affects plastics. Plastics get degraded in highly humid conditions. ...

What is peel strength testing & Its Uses?

Image
  The strength required for peeling two materials is measured by a machine which is commonly known as a peel/seal/bond strength tester . It is most commonly used in the  adhesive and packaging industries . A force is applied on the bonded surface with this tester by separating the materials.  Moreover, it is also helpful in understanding the adhesive strength and quality of a bond.  The main purpose of the  peel strength tester  is to measure the load applied to separate bonded materials.  A Peel strength tester is used because it is the best way to characterize adhesive bonds.  Moreover, it is performed at an  angle of 90-180 degrees . What is the use of a peel tester? Effective Lab India  peel bond tester  is used for several purposes in different industries. Let us tell you some of its uses in different industries. Packing industry:  In the  packaging industry , it is used for evaluating the...
