Description

Testometric provides specialized test systems designed for evaluating the strength and performance of plastic films and sheets. These systems include custom test fixtures and advanced software for assessing various characteristics such as tensile strength, peel adhesion, tear resistance, puncture resistance, blocking, and friction properties. The systems are developed to meet relevant international standards.

Typical Test Standards:

  • Adhesion:
    • ASTM D 903: Standard Test Method for Peel or Stripping Strength of Adhesive Bonds.
    • ASTM D 1367: Standard Test Method for Peel Strength of Adhesive Bonds.
    • ASTM D 3433: Standard Test Method for Peel Resistance of Adhesives.
    • BS 5980: Specification for Adhesive Tapes for Use in Electrical Engineering.
  • Additional Standards:
    • ASTM C 273: Standard Test Method for Shear Properties of Sandwich Core Materials (relevant for understanding core material performance, not directly for plastic films but useful in related contexts).
    • ASTM C 307: Standard Test Method for Tensile Properties of Chemical-Resistant Mortar, Grout, and Concrete (useful in understanding tensile testing principles).
