What is Tensile Strength Testing?
Tensile strength testing is a common mechanical testing method that determines how a material will behave under an axial stretching load. These tests can be performed under different conditions, depending on the information that needs to be gathered. Various materials can undergo tensile strength on multiple types of materials, including:
- Adhesives
- Composites
- Elastomers
- Films
- Metals
- Paper
- Plastics
