TTI Testing personnel are qualified and experienced Textile Technologists

See also:

• Forensic investigation of product failures, ropes, textiles and packaging
  
  
• In-house testing facilities for the determination of tensile and abrasion resistance properties of fibres, yarns and fabrics
  
  
• Specialised programmes to deliver enhanced analysis of Load/Extension curves from tensile testing
  
  
• Other investigative methods available include:
  
  • Optical and scanning electron microscopy, including 3D surface analysis
  • Fourier Transform infra-red spectrometry
  • Differential scanning calorimetry
  • Electrostatic characteristics by charge decay, surface and volume resistivity

These techniques allow detailed analysis of any complicated problem, where visual and tensile testing is not sufficient to understand the problem.
