Low Temperature Brittleness Tester

Brittleness Temperature Tester is intended to measure the brittleness temperature of vulcanized rubber, which is the lowest temperature at which none of a set of specimens fractures due to low-temperature embrittlement when tested under the specified conditions.

The low-temperature brittleness tester can be used to make comparative identification of functional performance for the non-rigid plastic and other elastic materials under the low-temperature condition and measure the pros and cons of low-temperature properties of different rubber materials and compound rubbers with different formulas. Therefore, the brittleness temperature tester is one of the vital rubber instruments in the quality inspection of scientific research and controlling the production process.
