Researchers use the Linkam MFS to image and measure the tensile properties of nanocomposite samples synthesised by coagulation spinning using carbon nanotubes.

Researchers detail the relationship between the tensile and piezoelectric properties of flexible electronic films using printable ink with ceramic particles.

Linkam’s mechanical testing stage was used to study the tensile properties of ITO-free flexible electrodes, used for optoelectronic devices, revealing their mechanical integrity under bending and stretching conditions.

Researchers use Linkam’s mechanical testing stage to study the effects of tensile strain and temperature on a flexible electronic composite film made using hydrophobic nano-SiO₂ particles.

Researchers combine the mechanical testing and temperature control capabilities of Linkam’s mechanical testing system with x-ray scattering techniques (WAXS/SAXS) to elucidate the crystallisation and deformation induced orientation as a function of stress-strain behaviour and temperature.

Linkam’s mechanical testing system was used to test the mechanical properties of single carbon fibers. The fibers were used to make reinforced composites with tailored dimensions, which were then quantified in terms of their mechanical properties such as tensile strength and strain to failure.

Linkam’s mechanical testing system is used in a study exploring the mechanical and electrical properties of lithium ion energy storage devices for wearable and flexible eletronics.
