Durability

Do you know what conditions your product or material can withstand?  ARDL can perform a variety of material performance and durability tests on almost any type of product, material or compound including:

• Coatings
• Coated Rubber or Plastics
• Composites
• Elastomers
• Films
• Hoses
• Medical Devices
• Natural & Synthetic Rubber
• O-Rings
• Packaging
• Polymers
• Toys
• Tubing
• Windshield Wiper Blades

Types of Material Performance and Durability Testing Include:

• Aging Characteristics
• Relaxation
• Compression Set/Tension Set
• Thermal Stability
• Crack and Growth Fracture
• Fatigue
• Environmental (Ozone, Light)
• Tear Resistance

Material Performance and Durability Studies Allow ARDL to Determine:

• Dynamic Modulus
• High-Temperature Dependence
• Low-Temperature Dependence
• Post Aging
• Static Modulus
• High-Temperature Dependence
• Low-Temperature Dependence
• Post Aging

Other types of testing are also available.  Please contact ARDL's engineering department to discuss how Material Performance and Durability Testing can help you and your product.
