The 90-year-old technology of using rubber gloves for shock and leather gloves for protection of the rubber soon could be turned on its head by innovation. For years, we have heard the question, "What ...

When first introduced to mechanical testing of composite materials, one can be confused, even overwhelmed, by the number of available test standards. One reason for this large variety of tests is the ...

Over the last three decades, the rubber process analyzer has evolved as the processability test instrument of choice for measuring and solving many rubber factory problems. Also, a new ASTM reflective ...

A concern in some practical applications of materials, including composites, is their ability to resist permanent deformation with time under load; to sustain a load when they are deformed by a fixed ...

Methods of measuring statistical test sensitivity (signal-to-noise ratio) were published by John Mandel in 1964 and incorporated into ASTM D6600 in 2000, mainly to provide a means of determining the ...

For years, we have heard the question, "What about gloves in arc flash?" The reason this question wasn't answered sooner is complicated, but the standard is now available. ASTM F2675-13, Test Method ...
