Moisture Absorption Testing in Chennai

Why Moisture Absorption Testing Matters

Materials like plastics, rubber, and composites can absorb moisture from the surrounding environment, which may alter their physical, mechanical, and thermal properties. These changes can lead to issues such as:

• Dimensional instability
• Reduced tensile strength
• Altered insulation or dielectric properties
• Surface degradation or corrosion

By conducting moisture absorption testing, manufacturers can make informed decisions about material selection, treatment, and application—especially for industries such as automotive, aerospace, electrical, construction, and packaging.
