1.Abstract
Polymers, fiber-reinforced composites and ceramics are present in nearly everything around us. These durable, lightweight engineered materials are gaining ground because of the wide range of properties they offer. Nonmetallics can be engineered to meet any number of specific applications including heat and flame resistance, flexibility, durability and chemical resistance versus traditional metallic materials.
MTT Test Labs can provide analyses on new materials, support your R&D efforts, provide production control testing and comparative analyses.
2.Service object
Polymer materials manufacturers: in-depth product failure may cause the design, production, process, storage, transportation and so on stage, explore its failure mechanism, to improve product yield and provide basis for optimizing production processes.
Assembly plant: responsibility for arbitration; Improve assembly process; To help suppliers terms of the quality of incoming material inspection.
Distributors or agents, to provide favorable evidence for the quality responsibility, the responsibility for justice.
The machine user: improve product technology and reliability, improve the core competitiveness.
3.Produce benefit
1) It can find out fundamental failure reasons for polymer material, and effectively propose improving suggestions for products design and process;
2) It can provide improving suggestions for products and process; improve products yield and reliability as well as enhance product competitiveness;
3) It can clearly confirm the responsible party of product failure and provide the basis for the judicial arbitration.
4.Failure Analyisis of High Polymer Material
Fracture, cracking, corrosion, stratification, bubble, coating shedding, discoloration, abrasion failure etc.
