Compared to metals such as aluminum and steel, the number of stiffness and strength properties associated with polymer matrix composites (PMCs) is extensive. For metals, these mechanical properties ...

To provide a comprehensive analysis of various materials, TC&A Lab has introduced compression testing services, allowing for a thorough examination of the mechanical properties of metals, plastics, ...

Materials testing is a respected and established technique that is used to ascertain both the physical and mechanical properties of raw materials and components. It can be used to examine almost ...

Materials testing is a well-established technique used to determine the physical and mechanical properties of raw materials and components from a human hair to steel, composite materials and ceramics.

During the late 1960s and most of the 1970s, the composites industry was absorbing the impact of what was then the recent introduction of carbon fiber. The resulting composites exhibited both high ...
