Fracture Toughness Testing
Applied Technical Services conducts fracture toughness testing on ceramics, composites, plastics, and metals. Our analysis provides insight into the safety, longevity, and performance of materials experiencing crack propagation.
Why are Fracture Toughness Tests Important?
Fracture toughness tests determine the energy required to initiate crack growth and failure in materials. Manufactured materials are imperfect and can suffer from flaws and defects that impact their quality and performance. Fracture toughness testing allows manufacturers to evaluate and improve their products and materials by observing their performance under specific conditions.
Applied Technical Services' Fracture Toughness Testing Services
Our fracture toughness testing services determine the load required to cause materials’ brittle or ductile crack propagation. Our experienced staff works closely with clients to establish testing standards that emulate the conditions of the material’s application while also adhering to relevant ASTM standards. Upon the completion of service, our experts provide detailed reports of our findings so manufacturers can adequately assess the mechanical properties of their materials, allowing them to maintain quality control and predict a material’s performance throughout its service life.
