The TA-X® is a unique tool for the characterization of the wear resistance on coatings and polymers.
The patented method performs an evaluation on the submicrometer scale and therefore can been seen as a “nondestructive” measurement.
By a defined load an abasive tape is moved continously on the surface until the sphere is entering the material.
The amount of time needed for a given abrasion depth may be recorded
to give a better verification of the wear resistance in this highly interesting
surface area.
TA-X® may be used for the characterization during the R&D examination
of new coatings and materials as well as for the quality control during
production.
