Applied Technical Services offers modulus testing services that determine the physical properties of structural materials in compliance with common testing standards. Our services help manufacturers improve their material selection, product design, and quality control processes.
What is the Modulus of Elasticity, and Why is Modulus Testing Important?
Modulus of elasticity testing provides insight into a material’s elasticity and general resistance to deformation. Simply put, elasticity correlates to stiffness, so metal materials will have a higher modulus of elasticity than rubber-like materials. These tests are significant as they help manufacturers evaluate a materials’ potential applications and its strengths and weaknesses. Modulus data is essential in developing various products and structures such as bridges, buildings, and vehicles.
ATS’ Modulus of Elasticity Testing Capabilities
The American Society for Testing and Materials has developed numerous standards that determine the elasticity of various materials. We offer testing services that comply with several of these ASTM standards, including:
- ASTM C273
- ASTM D3039
- ASTM D638
- ASTM D790
- ASTM D882
- ASTM E111
ATS technicians follow the corresponding outlines to perform procedures that provide accurate evaluations of a sample’s chord, tangent, and Young’s modulus. Our modulus of elasticity testing services apply to a wide range of materials, including the following:
- Composites
- Glass
- Metals
- Rubber
- Plastics and Polymers
- Wood
