ASTM D1414 (D 1414) covers multiple properties of O-Rings. Part of the specification includes tension testing for determining the breaking force, tensile strength, and ultimate elongation of an o-ring ...
ASTM D412 (D 412) covers the tensile properties of thermoset rubbers and thermoplastic elastomers. The specification describes two test methods, A and B. Method A is common and can be performed on a ...
AKRON—What makes a lab Industry 4.0? It might not be what you think. "Most people think the introduction of robots and computers is Industry 4.0," said Khaled Boqaileh, co-founder and CEO of LabsCubed ...
PITTSBURGH—Measure twice and cut once might seem like the first line in a Carpentry 101 textbook, but it gets a little more complicated in the world of scientific material testing instruments. In the ...
When specifying seals for hydraulic, pneumatic, and fluidhandling systems, ensuring that seal materials suit the application is always a prime concern. Fluid incompatibility, temperature extremes, and ...
Engineered Cementitious Composites (ECC) are well known for their high tensile ductility and superior crack control capacity, making them attractive for resilient and damage-tolerant infrastructure.
One material property that is widely used and recognized is the strength of a material. But what does the word "strength" mean? "Strength" can have many meanings, so let us take a closer look at what ...
Back in April 2015, my CW column focused on the two ASTM standardized test methods used for measuring the through-the-thickness, or interlaminar, tensile strength of composite laminates. Despite their ...
