Mask | Material Testing Based on Tensile Strength

Apart from measurements using GC and FTIR, the quality and durability of mask can be evaluated
based on the tensile strength measurement. There are several guidelines available for these
measurements. Shimadzu has a range of precise universal tensile testers for all your material

testing applications.
