Materials testing

Material Testing

Materials (biomaterials as well as inorganic or organic materials) and devices (integrated circuits, LED, Solar cell etc.) need analysis to assess product , functioning, safety, reliability and toxicity. Effective materials testing covers verification of material characteristics for application trials, detection of defects, analysis of failures, improvement of new materials or conducting basic research on the theoretical strength of materials.

The following are some global organizations which are involved in setting up of "testing standards" and active research for material analysis and reliability testing.

Following are some international laboratories working in the area of material testing.
