Physical Metallurgy, Polymer Composites
INSTRON 5967 is equipped with low capacity load cell (30 kN), thus can very effectively used to determine different tensile and flexural strength values of low strength materials. Additional attachment to the machine is its environmental chamber. This environmental chamber helps to study the mechanical properties of materials at low as well as at elevated temperatures. 3-point bend set up of the machine can be used effectively to determine the flexural strength of composite materials.
