Material evaluation using ultra-micro hardness testing for metals, polymers, plastics, etc.

It is also possible to analyze many material properties such as Young's modulus, plastic hardness, plastic deformation amount, elastic ratio, and creep! Variations in hardness and other properties can be expressed using standard deviation.

Our company can perform ultra-microhardness measurements on various materials such as metals, polymers, plastics, and ceramics. Additionally, since hardness can be quantified, the characteristics of the materials become clearer. The ultra-microhardness tester "Fischer scope H100" measures by gradually increasing the load up to the set value, allowing for the continuous profiling of hardness and indentation depth from the surface, as well as information on the effects on the material. By determining the hardness value from the penetration depth of the indenter into the material and the load/penetration depth curve after unloading, it is possible to analyze many physical properties beyond hardness, such as Young's modulus, plastic hardness, plastic deformation amount, elastic ratio, and creep. Please feel free to contact us if you are considering evaluating the characteristics of materials. *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

basic information

【Device Overview】 ■ To perform measurements by gradually increasing the load up to the set load, continuous hardness from the surface, penetration depth, and information on the effects on the material can be obtained as a profile. ■ The hardness value can be determined from the penetration depth of the indenter into the material and the load/penetration depth curve after unloading, allowing for the analysis of many physical properties such as Young's modulus, plastic hardness, plastic deformation amount, elastic ratio, and creep, in addition to hardness. ■ By increasing the number of measurements, the variability of hardness and other properties can be expressed as standard deviation.
