Composites Testing
With the continuous development of science and technology, there
are many composite materials, and the production process also
needs to use scientific and technological means to detect some
properties of materials. Composite material testing is based on a
series of standardized, comparable and reproducible standards.
The main purposes of testing are raw material selection, product
development, product inspection, fault analysis and so on. As the
global leading composites analysis and testing company, Alfa
Chemistry offers a strong array of capabilities and testing services
