Capabilities
C-Therm technology has a broad range of unique capabilities that allow it to play an integral role in R&D, production, quality control and other monitoring functions across many industries.
One of the primary benefits of C-Therm technology is its ability to rapidly, non-destructively determine a material’s effusivity - a unique thermal characteristic of all materials related to their ability to transfer heat. Effusivity can be a valuable proxy for other material characteristics, and can be correlated to:
- Homogeneity
- Cure
- Heat damage
- Delamination
- Void detection
- Strength (tensile and modulus)
- Filler or molecular orientation
- Tactility or sensory warmth
- Cell structure in foams
- Vacuum levels
- Compression
