TS 9406 Plastics - Determination of Hardness - Rockwell Hardness

EUROLAB, with its state-of-the-art accredited laboratories and expert team, provides precise and fast testing services within the scope of TS 9406 test. This standard specifies a method for determining the notch hardness of plastics by means of a rockwell hardness tester using the rockwell M, L and R hardness scales.

TS 9406 is a Turkish standard that deals with the determination of hardness in plastics, especially using the Rockwell hardness test method. Hardness testing is a common technique used to evaluate a material's resistance to deformation, indentation, or penetration caused by an applied force.

The Rockwell hardness test is one of the commonly used methods for measuring hardness in a variety of materials, including plastics. It involves pressing a notch into the surface of the material under a predetermined load and then measuring the depth or permanent indentation left by the indentation. The Rockwell hardness value is determined by the depth of penetration and is an indicator of the relative hardness of the material.

Manufacturers, researchers, and quality control professionals can determine the hardness of plastics using the Rockwell hardness test, following the procedures outlined in TS 9406. This information is valuable for evaluating material properties, ensuring consistent manufacturing quality, and selecting suitable materials for specific applications.
