This video from ADMET shows the basics of conducting ASTM D695 rigid plastic compression testing. ASTM D695 covers mechanical properties of unreinforced and reinforced rigid plastics during ...

Compression tests are used to characterize various compressive properties such as the compression modulus and compressive strength. They are performed on fiber-reinforced composites with ...

As the demands for light-weight composite structures for aerospace, ground transportation, and environmentally sustainable energy systems develop, so do the mechanical testing requirements for ...

Instron’s AutoX 750 high accuracy of +/-1 µm, along with a maximum travel of 750 mm and multiple knife edge options make it an ideal extensometer for tensile, flexure and compression testing of ...
