Compression/stress relaxation.


The EF 02 elastometer is available from the company for compression or stress relaxation Stress relaxation describes how polymers relieve stress under constant strain. Because they are viscoelastic, polymers behave in a nonlinear, non-Hookean fashion.[1]  testing. This elastometer can be used for compression tests on profiles and for discontinuous discontinuous /dis·con·tin·u·ous/ (dis?kon-tin´u-us)
1. interrupted; intermittent; marked by breaks.

2. discrete; separate.

3. lacking logical order or coherence.
 stress relaxation tests.

This instrument is controlled by a computer, and the software allows the following tests to be performed: Discontinuous stress relaxation tests according to according to

1. As stated or indicated by; on the authority of: according to historians.

2. In keeping with: according to instructions.

3.

 3384 Method B; standard compression tests to measure modulus, such as in ISO 7743; and customer specified tests on products like o-rings and profiles.

These very accurate compression results are obtained due to the high accuracy in the displacement measurement, which includes a compensation for deformation in the load cell and in the instrument, according to the manufacturer.

If equipped with the optional oven, tests can be performed from -40[degrees]C to 200[degrees]C. The test jigs for stress relaxation are said to be simple in design, but made with very high accuracy regarding surface finish and parallelism An overlapping of processing, input/output (I/O) or both.

1. parallelism - parallel processing.
2. (parallel) parallelism - The maximum number of independent subtasks in a given task at a given point in its execution. E.g.
 in the platens.
