Material properties testing is a critical step in understanding how your materials will perform or react under a wide variety of stresses. Element can assist you in evaluating and understanding your material's properties, from tensile strength to thermal analysis and beyond.
The benefits of understanding material properties affect every stage of an application. Material properties testing can assist in R&D projects, prevent failures in the field, and anticipate issues before they arise. Not every material is the same, and guesswork is not an option.
Element offers a broad range of material properties testing services, specializing in metals, advanced composites, polymers, ceramic composites, and many more. Element can provide valuable insight about virtually any material characteristic, and any material type. We have experience providing testing for many sectors, and handle projects large and small. With a global network of labs and resources, we perform everything from routine tensile testing to custom fatigue programs.
