Explaining the spread in measurement of PDMS elastic properties: influence of test method and curing protocol

Accuracy in the measurement of mechanical properties is essential for precision engineering and for the interrogation of composition–property relationships. Conventional methods of mechanical testing, such as uniaxial tension, compression, and nanoindentation, provide highly repeatable and reliable...
