and force. This instrument is capable of running experiments from (-150 °C) to 1000 °C. Force can be applied in flexure, compression or tensile modes. Materials such as metals, polymers, coatings, foams, films, and fibers can be characterized for
expansion, penetration, compression, tension, and 3-point bending. M+P Labs uses TMA to measure material
properties such as the
coefficient of
thermal expansion (CTE), glass transition temperatures (Tg), softening and melting behavior, time to delamination...
