Vapor Shrinkage Tester
I. Product Overview
TheVapor Shrinkage Testeris a specialized thermal analysis instrument designed to measure dimensional changes in textiles, polymers, or composites when exposed to steam or saturated vapor environments. It simulates industrial finishing processes (e.g., sanforization) to evaluate shrinkage resistance and dimensional stability of materials.
