Hardness measurement of polymers and rubbers

Hardness measurement can provide information about the hardness of the material, how it has changed with time and exposure environment. Hardness measurement can be used for quality control. By comparing the hardness of a material that has been in operation and an unexposed material, you may observe if it has retained its properties.

Purpose

Hardness measurement gives the specific hardness of the material tested. 

By comparing the hardness of a reference material and material that has, for example, been aged or exposed to a particular environment, the investigation may say whether the hardness of the material has been affected by the specific exposure and whether its performance and life expectancy has deteriorated.

Method

The type of hardness measured depends on the type of measuring head used. Today a shore AM measuring head is mainly used but the possibility to equip the hardness meter with other measuring heads is possible, such as IRHD or Shore A/D.

Deliveries

After completion of the hardness measurement, the customer receives a result report if desired.
