Polymer Mechanics

Contact: Heinrich Böttcher (phone -2450)

The servicegroup Polymer Mechanics can process new developed polymers with a mini-extruder, an injection moulding machine and by compression moulding.
Dynamic mechanical methods are used for determination of complex moduli under tensile, compression and shear deformation. A universal tensile tester delivers information about mechanical properties in wide ranges of temperature and deformation.
