Centralized Resource Laboratory
Dynamic Mechanical Analyzer (DMA)
Specification:
Model: Diamond DMA
Make: Perkin Elmer, USA
Tests: Extension, Compression, Bending
Temp. Range: -65 to 600
Analytical charges:
Per sample
Students: Rs. 1100
Private users: Rs. 3000
Analysis Requirements:
Mechanical analysis is only possible for solid samples (ceramics, rocks, metals, polymers etc.). For cylindrical samples, the ratio of the diameter (maximum 3 cm) to the height of the samples should be about 1:1.70, while similar in the case of parallelopiped samples.
In the case of metal/polymer/ceramic/rock strips, the length of the sample should be 3 cm. For metal rods, the diameter should not exceed 0.3 cm.
