Evaluation of Indentation Hardness Properties and Indentation Methodology for Determining the Influence of Chemical Exposure on Polymeric Materials

The relevance and importance of the indentation experiment in chemical-material compatibility testing was evaluated. The spectrum of methods and instrumentation was surveyed. The ranking of methods was thermomechanical analysis (TMA), International Rubber Hardness Degree (lRHD), Shore A/D ISO Ball,...

Zusammenfassung:The relevance and importance of the indentation experiment in chemical-material compatibility testing was evaluated. The spectrum of methods and instrumentation was surveyed. The ranking of methods was thermomechanical analysis (TMA), International Rubber Hardness Degree (lRHD), Shore A/D ISO Ball, and Rockwell. Based on the advantages of the TMA method, a further review of indentation instrumentation is provided.
