ARDL provides its customers with capabilities for measuring the volatile loss from plastics using activated carbon methods. When comparing materials designers often need to understand the composition of the material including the plasticizer used. Through different methods such as direct contact with carbon and a wire cage method, ARDL can measure the migration of the plasticizer from the plastic material.
