Surface, aging and resistance

Back

Surfaces are subject to constant wear and tear during use. It is important to test the resistance to different stresses so that these do not become a case of damage and cause complaints. A variety of reproducible test methods can be used to simulate friction, scratch or abrasion tests with or without media.

In addition to colorimetric assessment, resistance to care and cleaning agents as well as to a wide range of operating materials is of great interest for basic aesthetic perception.

Test procedures

  • Taber
  • Martindale
  • Schopper / round rubbing
  • Crockmeter
  • Abrex
