Material Testing
Polymers, metals, alloys, and composites used in a wide range of industries require exacting materials testing to meet specifications for mechanical response and thermal stability. In applications ranging from solar panels to optical assemblies, glasses, thin films, and coatings must be carefully selected to achieve the right optical characteristics. Whatever your application, partnering with a full-suite material testing lab will help you optimize your products from the ground up!
Covalent offers diverse mechanical analysis, thermal testing, electrical probing, and optical characterization methods for materials analysis to help you ensure your parts and products have precisely the right properties and performance.
