Principle

Determination of electrical resistivity and conductivity (measurement under Direct Current, DC)

Samples are solid plates, thin films, fluids and greases.

Capabilities

  • Insulating materials analysis (ASTM D257/IEC 62631)
  • Moderately conductive materials (ASTM D4496)
  • Rubber property - Volume Resistivity of Electrically Conductive Products (ASTM D991)
  • Electrical resistivity of insulating liquids (ASTM D1169)
  • Electrical resistivity of greases
