Complete resistivity measurement solution
Perform resistivity measurements using test methods defined by industry standards ASTM, ISO and IEC. Analyze current–time plots to determine the proper electrification time for each material and review multiple readings to confirm stable and consistent results. Configure and automate measurements with the EC 14 Resistivity application. Loop or schedule tests to monitor resistivity changes over time, and export results for analysis.
Applications
Resistivity tests assess a material’s ability to resist or conduct electrical current, providing critical data for selecting materials in insulation, conductivity, and electrostatic control applications. These measurements help manufacturers ensure compliance with industry standards while improving product performance, reliability, and safety.
Resistivity testing is essential across fields such as rubber and plastic material development, high-voltage insulation, conductive polymers, and ESD protection.
