Services in Plastics

Expanded polymaterial is used in a wide range of applications – from building insulation and packaging to vehicle components and technical solutions. To ensure that the products meet requirements for quality, safety and durability, thorough testing is essential. Examples of test methods are EN ISO …

There are several new standards that define how traceability and recycled content in plastic products should be documented and verified. Examples of test standards are SS-EN 15345 (PP), EN 15342 (PS) and EN 15344 (PE).

Flexible sealants and joint sealants play a crucial role in building and construction projects. They ensure that joints are tight, protect against moisture ingress and maintain the durability of the building over time. The consequences of using a joint sealant with the wrong properties can be enorm…

We offer advanced oxygen analysis services and analyze samples from both solid and liquid materials.

We have process equipment for compounding, injection molding and extrusion. We perform testing of new material compositions, vary process parameters and prepare samples for evaluation. We offer equipment in the range from lab to pilotscale, providing possibilities for product development and solvin…

A tool for supporting the development of strategies for reducing the climate impact and increasing material recovery.  

A capillary rheometer is used to measure a material's flow properties at high shear rates. The results can be used for both material development and to predict a suitable processing window in extrusion, injection moulding, or fibre spinning.

It is important that the textiles on the market are free of harmful and regulated substances. Chemical analysis is a way to gain control over the products' chemical content.

It is important to choose compatible polymers that can withstand metal salt solutions or strong acids/bases depending on the battery system. We can help in this process by advising and testing polymer compatibility under a range of conditions.

It is important that the plastics used in batteries, including the components separator, binder, electrolyte, and electrodes are able to withstand metal salts, harsh acids and bases that can be used as electrolytes under cycled or high temperatures, over a range of pressures. This enables optimizat…

IQD-protocol for a quality secured product manufacturing and verification of product characteristics for the product group Flexible sheets for waterproofing. Verification of the product quality level and service life for the intended use and function as a Flexible sheets for waterproofing in buil…

It is important that the materials on the market are free of hazardous and regulated substances. Chemical analysis is a way to gain control over the products' chemical content.

Ackredited productions test for third party quality assurance of CIPP-liner projects. The tests usually performed is measurement of wall thickness, ring stiffness or bending stiffness and residual styrene according to standardized methods in EN ISO 11296-4:2018.

Do you need to characterize thechemical composition of your material? FTIR (Fourier Transform InfraRed) spectroscopy is an important tool in material analysis. In addition to the standard set-ups, we have two advanced spectroscopic techniques; dynamic FTIR and imaging FTIR spectroscopy.

FTIR analysis is valuable for batch analysis to ensure consistent quality over time. It can be used to verify materials that do not behave as expected, helping confirm that the correct material has been supplied. Recycled material streams often require inspection to ensure proper sorting and that…

The TGA instrument measures weight change of a sample as a function of temperature.
