Hardness of epoxy resin
Epoxy resin hardness refers to the ability of epoxy resin material or coated surface to resist scratch or Indentation. Hardness is usually measured by durometer or Indentation instrument, and different types of hardness testing methods can evaluate the hardness level of materials under different conditions. Epoxy resin hardness is one of the important indicators to measure its scratch resistance performance, wear resistance performance and overall durability.
Hardness of epoxy resin Testing instrument
Epoxy resin Hardness refers to the surface Hardness or abrasion resistance of the epoxy resin after drying and is usually tested using instruments such as the Rockwell Hardness Tester. The test method involves applying standard pressure to the surface of the epoxy resin and measuring the depth or trace of the imprint. This helps evaluate the surface Hardness of the epoxy resin to ensure durability in shipbuilding and painting.
