Products’ conformity to standards and specifications is ensured by the Quality Control Service (QCS).
Functions of QCS:
The QCS activities are regulated and approved by the certificate from Bryansk CSM FBE.
QCS key equipment:
DSC 204 F1 Phoenix® dynamic heat flux differential scanning calorimeter with the working temperature range of –160 °C to 600 °C (measurement of melting temperature, oxidative induction time, crystallization temperature, thermal effects of chemical reactions);
PFA-378 flame photometer (measurement of Ca and Mg ion contents);
AI7000-M universal testing machine + thermal chair with cryogenic capabilities (physico-mechanical properties of polymers: tension, compression, bending; temperature range: –60 °C to +250 °C) ;
Analysette 3 vibratory sieve shaker (fractional sifting of clay);
Portable Shore A, D hardness tester (measurement of indentation hardness of polymer materials);
X-Rite spectrophotometer No. 2 (measurement of surface color characteristics);
Impact strength testing poppet Charpy and Izod impact strength measurement (measurement of impact strength of: polymers, wood, ceramics, glasses, epoxy blends, rubber);
Microscope (primary inspection of films for impurties (larger than 20 µm), polymer thread texture, evaluation of supermolecular features; evaluation of crystallite sizes and polymer crystallinity degrees) ;
