T1 - Centrifuge technology revolutionises adhesion testing N2 - Composite materials fulfil a great variety of functions in a wide field of applications. Testing the composite properties under environmental conditions is a must for development and quality control. Common tensile strength test instruments have limitations, like single sample handling only. Present test methods for multi-layers, e.g. peel test, permit semi-quantitative ,or qualitative evaluation only. A new instrument based on analytical centrifugation is introduced, using centrifugal force as test load, permitting to determine bonding and adhesive strength of up to 8 samples simultaneously.
