What is ISO 23737 about?
ISO 23737 specifies a method for testing the wear resistance and friction coefficient for fine ceramic thin films in dry and high-humidity environments, where such films have a thickness of up to approximately 1 μm and are deposited on a substrate or a base, including a thin substrate or a very thin organic polymer film base.
ISO 23737 provides measurement methods that facilitate the accurate evaluation of wear resistance for fine ceramic thin films in dry and high-humidity environments, where such films have a thickness of up to approximately 1 μm and are deposited on a thin substrate or an organic polymer film base.
Who is ISO 23737 for?
ISO 23737 on methods for evaluating wear and friction characteristics of fine ceramic is relevant to:
- Micromechanical elements manufacturers
- Media industry professionals
- Optical elements manufacturers
- Packaging films manufacturers
- Building and vehicle glass manufacturers
Why should you use ISO 23737?
Fine ceramic thin films are used in a wide variety of applications, such as sensors, actuators or other micromechanical elements; display elements; memory elements; recording media; optical elements; packaging films; and films and glass for building construction and vehicles.
In the industrial application of fine ceramic thin films, resistance to wear is an important index for evaluation, which is greatly affected by environmental humidity. Therefore, the wear test for fine ceramic thin films provided by ISO 23737, should be performed under a regulated relative humidity condition.
ISO 23737 enables you to accurately evaluate wear resistance for fine ceramic thin films, and has been put to practice to facilitate industrial development through the prompt circulation of these measurement methods. The accuracy of the ISO 23737-compliant test results will help in improving product development and quality control of end-products and thereby gain trust of your customers.
The use of ISO 23737 helps to contribute to UN Sustainable Development Goal 9 which aims to ensure the building of resilient infrastructure, promoting inclusive and sustainable industrialization and fostering innovation.
