Polymer Characterisation Analysis

Testing Chemical and Physical Properties of Polymers and Plastics

Intertek polymer laboratories analyze polymers for wide range of key chemical and physical properties. By characterizing polymer properties, Intertek helps clients with research, quality, technical issues and provides understanding of product performance and competitor products.

Intertek laboratories characterise complex polymer and plastic products and composites, working with clients who use, produce and modify a broad range of plastics, synthetic polymers and natural polymers. Polymer analysis and charaterization laborartories are located on a globa basis.

Key Intertek polymer and plastics testing expertise includes the measurement and testing of polymer physical properties, surface analysis, films, identification, formulation and regulatory support.
