Material testing Together with our partner organisation, the Astronomy Technology Centre in Edinburgh, the Advanced Materials Group can offer a comprehensive materials testing facility down to low temperatures. PropertyTemperature Range Thermal conductivity4-300K Specific Heat4-300K UTS and Young’s modulus4K, 77K and 300K CTE and contraction integrals4-300K
2
Current equipment includes: Servohydraulic test machines operating at liquid nitrogen and helium temperatures for Young’s modulus and strength measurements. Loads up to 10kN. Dynamic mechanical analyzer operating down to -80 C. CTE measurement system operating at liquid helium and nitrogen measurements, a variable temperature test cryostat for thermal conductivity and specific heat measurements. The following slides show some of the capabilities …..
