Hmv 2t e

Manufactured by Shimadzu
Sourced in Japan

The HMV-2T E is a digital microhardness tester from Shimadzu. It measures the microhardness of small samples or specific locations on a larger sample. The instrument uses a diamond indenter to create an impression on the test material, and the size of the impression is used to calculate the hardness value.

Vickers Hardness and Shear Strength Evaluation of TLP Bonded Stainless Steels

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Hardness changes at the bonding position were investigated using the Vickers hardness tester (HMV-2T E, Shimadzu, Kyoto, Japan). For this purpose, a load of 50 g and a holding time of 10 s were used. Hardness changes in the bonding area, the interface, and the diffusion affected zone were measured. Due to the fact that bonding materials in the transient liquid-phase bonding method are a subset of the brazing processes, the shear strength test has been used to determine the bond strength. This test is performed according to the standard DASTM1002-05 with a strain rate of 1 mm/min. In order for the load to be applied precisely to the TLP-bonded sample, it is necessary to use a holder to convert the tensile stress into shear stress.
For this purpose, the TLP specimens with 10 × 10 × 10 mm3 dimensions were placed inside the special holder [25 (link)]. Then, the holding was placed in the jaws of the tension device, and the load was applied. This was performed using the Wolpert-FM2750 (Japan) device. The evaluation of shear strength on each series of samples was repeated three times. Figure 2 shows the schematic of experimental setup of the diffusion bonding processes of super-ferritic and martensitic stainless steel by BNi-2 amorphous foil.

Comprehensive Mechanical Characterization of Composite Materials

A Vickers micro hardness tester (SHIMADZU, HMV-2TE, Kyoto, Japan) was used to test the micro hardness of composite materials, with a loading load of 980 mN and a loading time of 15 s. Metallographic microscope (Olympus, BX41RF, Tokyo, Japan) was used to take photos of hardness indentation. A slow diamond cutting machine (Kejing, SYJ-150, Shenyang, China) was used to cut a circular rod with a diameter of 2 mm into a cylindrical sample with a length of 4 mm for compression testing. A computer-controlled electro-hydraulic servo universal testing machine (Guanteng, PA200, Changchun, China) was used to test the compressive mechanical properties of the MGMC and BMG samples with a strain rate of 0.5 mm/min. To ensure the reliability of the data, each sample was tested at least 3 times, and the mechanical property was taken from the average value of the samples. The density of different as cast samples was tested based on the Archimedes drainage method, and the specific strength was evaluated by dividing the yield strength obtained from the compression experiment by the density.

Microhardness and pH Cycling Evaluation

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Initial hardness was measured using a microhardness tester (HMV-2T E; Shimadzu Corporation, Tokyo, Japan) with a Knoop diamond indenter under a 50 g load for 5 seconds.15 (link) The following three indentations were carried out on specimen surface: one at center and the remaining two at a distance of approximately 100 μm from central location. Of the 80 dental slabs, the 60 slabs that had the closest average hardness (KHN) values were selected.
Of the 60 dental slabs selected, 30 specimens were randomly subjected to pH cycling model and 30 specimens were not pH cycled (n=10). During the experiment, specimens that were not pH cycled were immersed in distilled water (pH 7; Byofórmula, São José dos Campos, São Paulo, Brazil) and changed daily to not interfere with mineral content.

Microhardness Evaluation of Dental Materials

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The hardness at the bottom and top of each sample was obtained with a digital microhardness tester (HMV-2T E; Shimadzu Corporation, Tokyo, Japan) under a load of 10 g for 10 s. Five hardness measurements were taken for the surface, and the KHN was recorded as the average of the five indentations. The hardness was determined before (KHNb) and after (KHNa) immersion in the storage media.
The CLD was estimated by the softening effect promoted by the storage media, that is, by the decrease in hardness. Data were submitted to repeated-measures split-plot ANOVA, followed by Tukey's test (α =0.05).

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
