The Elmendorf Tear Test, also known as Elmendorf tear strength, is a method used to determine the force required to tear a fabric in a single pass. It is typically performed using an Elmendorf Tearing Tester or a falling hammer-type instrument. Here are the key details about this test: Scope: The test measures the force value needed to tear a [...]
It is common to see printings on paper or paperboard in daily life such as paper box, paper carton, books, magazines, labels, calendars and name cards, etc. The printing quality are mainly determined by several factors including printing process, quality of ink, smoothness and features of paper or paperboard. The features of paper or paperboard [...]

Volatile Corrosion Inhibition (VCI) has found its wild application, and has completely promoted metal antirust from grease. Now, in the field for high quality rust-proof applications, including military, precision machinery, ironware, measuring and blade wares, electric and electronic applications, machinery processing, storage and voyage as well as high requirements for export goods, VCI packages have [...]
Tearing of medical protective clothing may occur because of external forces in storage, transportation and usage. Sufficient tearing resistant forces can reduce tearing and avoid dangers. SLY-S1 Tearing Tester complies with Elmendorf method, and is applicable in tearing resistance test of films, laminated films, foils, paper and paper boards. Further details please feel free to [...]
The VCI (Volatile Corrosion Inhibition) packaging material may be torn by exterior forces during storage and transportation. Sufficient tear resistance can reduce the transmission of tear and avoid rusting caused by leakage. The testing for tear performances of VCI packaging material is of Elmendorf method; and Labthink PARAM SLY-S1 Tearing Tester can be applied for [...]
