Obtaining full contact for measuring polydimethylsiloxane mechanical properties with flat punch nanoindentation

Procedure to establish full contact between the sample and the 1 mm diameter cylindrical flat punch tip to measure polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) mechanical properties using the Hysitron TriboIndenter is described. This procedure differs from the standard automated indentation because each indent has t...
