Pendulum Hardness Tester
Double pendulum, initial swing angle 6 ° (K)/12 ° (P), end swing angle 3 ° (K)/4 ° (P), automatic counting function, can be used to determine film resilience and viscoelasticity.
Introduction
The pendulum Hardness Tester provides a method to measure the elasticity and viscoelasticity of a coating film. Place the coating film under the pendulum and measure the swing time of the pendulum to determine the elasticity of the coating film. The principle is to support the two small stainless steel balls on the pendulum Hardness Tester on the dried coating and swing them in a certain period. The softer the coating surface, the faster the swing amplitude of the pendulum attenuates.

FAQ
QI want to test the Hardness of automotive paint. Is PUSHEN BY-III (KP) suitable?
A
Appropriately, this double pendulum design can measure both Koenig and Persuz Hardness values at the same time. Automotive paints need to investigate the resilience changes at different temperatures, and the 200g/500g double weight configuration of the KP pendulum can more fully reflect the deformation resistance of the paint film.
QThe laboratory needs to do Coating acceptance, choose a single pendulum or a double pendulum hardness gauge?
A
The double pendulum model is recommended because the KP pendulum contains two test standards. The Koenig pendulum is suitable for testing soft coatings, and Persuz is more sensitive to hard paints. One set of instruments can meet a variety of Coatings testing needs, and the acceptance data is more authoritative.
