Exploring Changes in Objects During Low-Temperature Testing in a Test Chamber

Source:LINPIN Time:2025-04-10 Category:Industry News

Previously, we discussed the changes that occur in objects during high-temperature testing. But what happens when materials are subjected to low-temperature testing in a low-temperature test chamber? Today, we’ll examine the transformations materials undergo in cold environments.

Brittleness and Hardening – Prolonged exposure to low temperatures can make certain materials (such as plastics) harder and more brittle. Metals may develop cracks or even fracture, while impact resistance may also be altered.

Jamming or Reduced Mobility – Due to differing thermal contraction coefficients among materials, rapid temperature changes can cause components to stick or operate less smoothly.

Reduced Anti-Static Properties – Materials like glass may experience diminished electrostatic effects when kept in low-temperature conditions for extended periods.

Frost and Ice Formation – Test samples containing moisture may develop frost or freeze, potentially damaging their structural integrity.

Increased Friction from Lubricants – At low temperatures, lubricants may thicken or solidify, increasing friction between moving parts and leading to sluggish or halted operation.

Changes in Electrical Parameters – Components such as resistors and capacitors may exhibit altered electrical properties, affecting overall performance.

Altered Combustion Rates – Sustained low temperatures can influence the burning behavior of certain materials.

These are some of the key effects observed when testing objects in a low-temperature test chamber. Since temperatures in these chambers can drop to several dozen degrees below zero, different materials exhibit unique behaviors under such conditions. Therefore, when selecting testing equipment, users should consider the specific characteristics of their test samples and the desired experimental outcomes.

As a manufacturer of environmental testing equipment, our low-temperature test chambers are widely used for evaluating electronics, military products, automotive parts, chemical materials, telecommunications components, aerospace products, and more. Our devices offer high testing efficiency, low energy consumption, and precise results, making them a preferred choice among many clients.

I assume that most of you are no strangers to Linpin's high and low temperature alternating humidity-heat test chamber. While gaining a deep understanding of its application scenarios and operational methods, we must never overlook its maintenance essentials.
Dust testing, codified in GB/T 2423.37 and IEC 60068-2-68, is now mandatory for proving the sealing integrity and reliability of military, automotive, photovoltaic and rail-transit products. Direct test outlays—consumables, energy, labour and depreciation—seldom exceed one to three per cent of the selling price, yet hidden expenses triggered by poor chamber selection—repeat tests, invalid data or after-sales downtime—can leap to eight to twelve per cent.
Although thermal shock test chambers also detect the weather resistance of test specimens by simulating different natural temperatures, this equipment differs from other temperature and humidity series test equipment. What are the unique features of such products? Let me introduce some features of this product.
In the fields of scientific research experiments and product quality inspection, constant temperature and humidity test chambers are indispensable equipment.
Accurate temperature control in a high-low temperature alternating humidity test chamber enhances testing precision. Therefore, it is essential to understand the temperature control process of the testing equipment.
