The Powder Strength Tester MKPS-A100 is a precision instrument that measures particle hardness, strength, and elasticity - from individual particles to powder beds. It can measure extremely small forces over a wide range, from 10 nN to 10 N.
Key features:
- Wide measurement range: Measures crushing force from 10 nN to 10 N
- Small particle capability: Particles as small as 3 μm or larger can be measured
- Clear peak detection: Obtains clear peaks even with crushing force of 1 mN or less
- Temperature control: Adjustable temperature up to 150°C for temperature-dependent evaluation
- Video observation: Crushing process can be observed with frame-by-frame images
- Elasticity evaluation: Young's modulus can be calculated by specifying conditions
- Applications: Battery materials (active material hardness, solid electrolyte deformation), resin materials (coating strength), toner materials (temperature dependence), metal materials (quality evaluation)
