Density Determination Testing Services
Density determination is a critical test method for the performance and quality control of rubber materials. Our laboratory offers testing services for density determination of vulcanized and thermoplastic rubbers in accordance with TS ISO 2781 Method A. These tests determine the properties of rubber materials and help you guarantee the quality and durability of your products.
Density Determination Tests
Definition and Importance of the Test
Density determination is a test method that determines the mass per unit volume of a material. In rubber materials, density determination provides critical information about the quality control, homogeneity and performance of the material. This test is especially important for monitoring and controlling material quality in production processes.
Test Procedure
Density determination testing is based on the principle of measuring the weight of vulcanized and thermoplastic rubbers in air and in water. The analysis is calculated as the ratio of the mass of a given volume of rubber sample to the mass of the same volume of pure water. During the test, the samples are conditioned at a temperature of 23±2°C and a certain relative humidity. The tested samples are weighed both in air and in water on an analytical balance and the density value is automatically calculated in g/cm³.
Safety and Quality Control
In our laboratory, all necessary safety precautions are taken to perform tests safely. Personnel perform tests using protective equipment and pre-test conditioning of each sample is performed in accordance with the “Guide to Internal Quality Control Practices for Analysis”. These processes ensure the accuracy and reliability of test results.
Reporting of Test Results
Evaluation of Results
The test results are reported as density values of the sample. The report contains detailed information on the standard used, description of the sample, conditioning conditions and methods of analysis. In addition, the results are presented as average values and the number of test pieces used is also indicated in the report.
Application Areas
Density determination tests are critical for rubber material manufacturers, quality control laboratories and materials engineers. These tests support the quality control processes of your products, helping you to improve market compliance and customer satisfaction.
