Our Lab Capabilities

Our Lab's Solutions Bring Understanding To Predict Constitutive Behavior Of The Polymeric Materials. Currently Wee Offer Different  Products And Solutions Like:

MATERIAL CHARACTERIZATION & TESTING

KARAX is equipped to evaluate material properties and performance for various types of metals, plastics, ceramics, and composites. In addition to tension, compression, and bending of material samples, we also perform insertion and extraction force testing on electrical connectors and cable assemblies.

MELT FLOW INDEX (MFI)

is a basic analyses to get a sense of the flow behavior of thermoplastic polymers? The MFI value is a widely used parameter for selecting polymer grades for a certain application.

FIBER VOLUME FRACTION MEASUREMENT (FVFM)

The Fiber Volume Fraction (FVF) measurement of fiber-reinforced polymers (FRPs) is crucial in understanding and characterizing their mechanical performance. To date, there has not been a standardized, labor-efficient method in determining the FVF of a non-crimp fabric (NCF) carbon reinforced thermoplastic composites (CFRTPs).

HDT / VICAT MEASUREMENT

Measurement of the heat distortion temperature of polymer due provide an indication of its useful working upper temperature range.

MECHANICAL TESTING

We can do measure the important mechanical properties of a composite to accepted standards or norms-stiffens, strength, flexural properties, impact, etc.

ELECTRICAL CONDUCTIVITY TESTING

We Have equipment for measuring the electrical conductivity of modified polymers and composites, e.g. due to the addition of conductive avidities or non-avidities.

DIFFERENTIAL SCANNING CALORIMETRY

Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) is a thermo-analytical technique that measures the heat flow difference between a sample and a reference as temperature changes. Both are maintained at nearly the same temperature while the sample is heated at a controlled linear rate. The reference material has a well-defined heat capacity across the test temperature range.

DYNAMIC MECHANICAL ANALYSIS (DMA)

is a technique used to study and characterize materials. It is most useful for studying the viscoelastic behavior of polymers. A sinusoidal stress is applied and the strain in the material is measured, allowing one to determine the complex modulus. The temperature of the sample or the frequency of the stress are often varied, leading to variations in the complex modulus; this approach can be used to locate the glass transition temperature of the material, as well as to identify transitions corresponding to other molecular motions.
