Determination of stress-strain characteristic in compression
Testing standard:
DIN EN ISO 3386-1
Product information
Test to determine the compressive stress deformation properties (load-bearing properties of the material) of soft resilient foams with a density up to 250 kg/m³.
The test is used to evaluate the safety and performance of materials used in various applications such as protective upholstery, seating and packaging to ensure that they can effectively absorb shock and provide adequate cushioning
