Khushboo Scientific will be
demonstrating a variety of equipments for quality checking of adhesives at
their stall G11 at Labelexpo India. On display will be AR-1000 adhesion release
testing machine which is designed to perform PSTC, ASTM, TLMI, FINAT and AFERA
adhesion and release testing procedures with the speeds varying between 6 and
1200 inches per minute. Other equipment include PA-1000-180 degree peel
adhesion; LT-1000 loop tack to quickly and efficiently determine the tack or
grab of an adhesive; PT-1000 Polyken Probe Tack for measuring the tack of
pressure sensitive adhesives. A precision ground 5.0 mm diameter flat probe
contacts the adhesive, reverses direction and pulls away from the adhesive. The
maximum force required to break the adhesive bond is recorded and displayed.
S-HT-30 high temperature 30 bank shear performs shear tests in ovens, humidity
chambers or freezers; and RBT-100 rolling ball tack tester provides an easy
method of testing the tack of an adhesive.
