Advanced Testing of Polymer Nanocomposites – According to ISO & ASTM

Specialized Testing of Polymer Nanocomposites

Nanocomposites are advanced polymers reinforced with nanomaterials (such as carbon nanotubes, graphene, nanoclays, or metal oxides) that provide increased strength and sustainability.  We offer accredited testing services according to international standards (ISO & ASTM) tailored to the unique requirements of polymer nanocomposites to ensure reliable results and performance in demanding applications such as automotive, aerospace, electronics, packaging, and construction.

We perform standard tests such as ISO 527 (tensile strength), ISO 179 (impact resistance), ISO 604 (compressive modulus), ISO 188 (heat aging), ASTM D882 (film tensile strength), ISO 34-1 (tear strength), ISO 6383 (film tear resistance), ISO 1133 (melt flow index), ISO 1183 (density), ISO 4892 series (weather resistance), ISO 306 (Vicat softening temperature), and ISO 75 (heat deflection temperature).
