What Is Melt Flow Testing? Melt flow testing is a standardized method used to measure the rate at which a polymer, in its melted state, flows through a specific die under a set load and temperature. Essentially, this test provides a quick, repeatable way to gauge a polymer’s viscosity and processability. Melt flow testing measures the […]

A Horizontal Tensile Tester is an essential piece of equipment used to evaluate the static tensile performance of various materials and components. Unlike traditional vertical tensile machines, this system adopts a horizontal structural layout, significantly expanding the testing space and accommodating large specimens or full-size samples that cannot be tested vertically. Its steel-frame configuration and mature testing […]

Introduction Needle penetration testing plays a critical role in ensuring the safety and reliability of medical devices and materials used in pharmaceutical manufacturing. By assessing the puncture resistance of materials such as vial stoppers and protective films, this testing process guarantees compliance with stringent standards, including USP 381, ISO 7864, and ISO 8871-5. This article […]

Reinforcement Yarn and Thread for Industrial Hoses Synthetic yarns, such as nylon and polyester, are known for their relatively high shrinkage when exposed to heat. To maintain consistent physical and mechanical properties after extrusion, these yarns are commonly subjected to heat setting. This process involves stretching the yarn under controlled tension at elevated temperatures, permanently […]
