HARDNESS ANISOTROPY AND POLARITY IN INDIUM-ANTIMONIDE by Roberts, S

“…Hardness tests were performed on left brace 111 right brace and left brace 001 right brace faces of InSb in the temperature range 20-400 degree C. A Vickers indenter was used on the left brace 111 right brace faces; it was found that the In face was harder than the Sb face at all temperatures. …”

Measurements of the effects of pure and salt water absorption on the rate-dependent response of an epoxy matrix by Quino, G, Pellegrino, A, Tagarielli, V, Petrinic, N

“…Epoxy samples were exposed to wet conditioning environments including pure water, NaCl-water solution, and pure water at boiling temperature, measuring absorption as a function of time. Vickers hardness and indentation creep tests were performed and the mechanical response of the material to uniaxial stress was also measured in both compression and tension, at imposed strain rates in the range 0.001–2500 s−1. …”

Hardness and compressive properties of calcium carbonate derived from clam shell filled unsaturated polyester composites by Mahshuri, Y., Amalina, M.A.
