CASE STUDY: Polymer Weathering and Degradation

The insight from polymer failure investigations can help to avoid recurrence and prevent failure in similar materials, components, systems, or products in the future. It can also aid materials / selection, qualification processes, design engineering and production processes by driving understanding into to the material’s properties and performance.

In this case study Dr. Peter Muehlschlegel, Project Manager and Scientific Expert, describes how Failure investigation can be applied to many cases where materials do not perform satisfactorily and can include mechanical malfunction or fracture and failure of materials, discoloration issues, deterioration over time, failure in processing or contamination.
