Plastics, Polymers & Materials Testing

Servicing industry since 1973 , Polyhedron Laboratories delivers a broad range of services. In the field of testing, Polyhedron offers identification, thermal analysis, mechanical analysis, physical, rheology, electrical, optical, and chemical property testing of plastics, polymers, coatings and rubber, complying with ASTM, FDA, ISO, military specification (mil spec) and ANSI quality assurance standards. Polyhedron Laboratories delivers a full variety of analytical and testing services including elastomer testing, infrared, scanning electron microscopy, video microscopy, liquid chromatography, molecular weight, thermogravimetric analysis, tensile compression, dynamic mechanical analysis, differential scanning calorimetry, GC-mas spectrometry, UV-visible spectrometry, energy dispersive spectrometry, ICP, nuclear magnetic resonance, capillary rheometry, shear and impact testing. Other testing includes refractive index, friction, gloss, wear, haze, dielectric breakdown and resistivity.

Polyhedron fully participates in the ASTM Interlaboratory Proficiency Test Program D-20 for polyethylene and multiplastics mechanical testing. Participation in both of these programs has occurred every six months. ASTM proficiency test results along with same day calibration records can certify our testing results under any degree of scrutiny.
