Materials Testing Services
Evaluate how your material performs under mechanical, thermal, physical, chemical and environmental conditions. Anysis helps R&D, quality and manufacturing teams verify material properties, compare samples and make clearer product decisions.
What Is Materials Testing?
Materials testing is the process of evaluating how raw materials, components and finished products behave under defined mechanical, thermal, physical and environmental conditions.
It turns material behavior into measurable evidence—helping you determine whether a material is suitable for its intended application, meets specified requirements, remains consistent between suppliers or production batches, and retains important properties during use.
It Helps You Answer Questions Such As:
- Is the material strong, flexible or durable enough for the application?
- Will it withstand relevant heat, humidity, chemicals or aging conditions?
- Are two suppliers, grades or production batches meaningfully different?
- Does the material meet a specification, customer requirement or performance target?

Typical Materials Testing Methods
The appropriate test method or combination of methods is selected according to the material type, performance requirement, sample condition and information needed.
Testing conditions are project-specific. Test methods, sample preparation, environmental conditions and reporting scope should be confirmed according to the project objective and any applicable specifications before testing begins.
Tensile Testing
Strength, elongation and mechanical response under tensile loading
Compression Testing
Compressive strength, deformation and load-bearing behavior
Hardness Testing
Resistance to indentation, scratching or localized deformation
Impact Testing
Material resistance to sudden loading, fracture and impact damage
DSC / TGA
Thermal transitions, decomposition behavior and thermal stability
DMA
Viscoelastic behavior, modulus and temperature-dependent mechanical properties
FTIR / Raman
Chemical structure, functional groups and material comparison
SEM / EDS
Surface morphology, fracture features and localized elemental composition
XRD
Crystal structure, phase identification and crystallinity information
ICP-MS / ICP-OES
Elemental composition, trace elements and impurity levels
Laser Diffraction
Particle-size distribution of powders and dispersed materials
Electrical & Ionic Conductivity
Electrical transport or ionic-conductivity behavior under defined conditions
When Do You Need Materials Testing?
Materials testing is useful when a technical or business decision depends on objective evidence about material performance.
Material Selection
Compare candidate materials and determine whether selected properties fit the intended application.
Product Development
Support development decisions by measuring the behavior of materials, components or prototypes.
Supplier Comparison
Compare agreed properties between suppliers, grades, formulations or alternative material sources.
Quality Control
Investigate whether incoming materials or production batches remain consistent with agreed requirements.
Performance Verification
Evaluate whether a material or product meets defined performance targets or customer specifications.
Problem Investigation
Use property testing as part of a broader investigation when unexpected material behavior is observed.

Not Sure Which Test You Need?
Tell us about your material, product application or performance concern. Our engineers will help define a suitable testing plan.
What information is required for a materials testing quote?
Please provide the material type, sample form, intended application, property to be evaluated, target specification and any available reference samples.
How do I know which test method to choose?
You do not need to select the method in advance. Our team can review your objective and recommend suitable options.
Can you test according to ASTM or ISO standards?
Testing may be performed according to applicable standards or customer specifications. The exact method and reporting scope should be confirmed before the project begins.
Can you compare two suppliers or production batches?
Yes. Comparative testing can help identify differences in mechanical, thermal, physical or other agreed properties.
How much sample is required?
Sample quantity depends on the material, specimen dimensions, number of replicates and selected methods.
Can you test finished products as well as raw materials?
Yes, depending on product size, sample preparation requirements and the requested evaluation.
Do you provide accredited test reports?
Availability depends on the method, parameter and applicable accredited scope. This should be confirmed before sample submission.
How long does materials testing take?
Lead time depends on sample preparation, selected methods, conditioning requirements and project complexity. An estimated schedule will be provided with the quotation.
