Understanding the Science Behind Burst Strength

Burst strength testing measures the amount of pressure required to rupture a material. The process involves clamping a sample over a diaphragm and applying pressure until it bursts. The pressure reading at failure is the burst strength.

This test is vital for materials like:

• Corrugated boards and fiberboards

• Flexible plastics and films

• Rubber membranes

• Laminates and foils
