Vartest upgraded our Instron with a 90-degree peel fixture earlier this year. It now allows us to perform the following methods:
ASTM B571: Qualitative Adhesion Testing of Metallic Coatings
ASTM D429 Method B: Rubber Property—Adhesion to Substrates
ASTM D3330 Method F: Peel Adhesion of Pressure-Sensitive Tape
ASTM D6252: Peel Adhesion of Pressure-Sensitive Labels
ASTM D6862: 90 Degree Peel Resistance of Adhesives
Methods such as ASTM D3330 can be found at www.astm.org.
Other physical testing methods can be found at Physical Testing.
