Testing foam materials

 

    1. Laboratory testing
      1. Physical properties
        1. density
        2. compressive strength
        3. tensile strength
        4. dimensional stability (Hot and cold tests)
        5. cellular structure and uniformity
      2. Processing analysis (ratio, mix, etc.)
    2. Field testing and monitoring
      1. Fill monitoring for cavity fill applications with IR
      2. Adhesion/pull testing
      3. Average thickness
      4. Pass thickness
      5. Processing QA protocols (reactivity, ratio, mix, etc.)
      6. Dimensional stability (Internal stress analysis)
      7. Substrate compatibility
