Deformation of composite in laboratory
You wish to perform a deformation on your composites?
What is a deformation?
Deformulation is an analytical decomposition process that aims to separate, identify and quantify the substances that make up a formulation. To do this, deformulation uses many different chemical analysis.
The deformulation applies to any type of industrial sector and is used in various contexts:
- Analyze and determine the composition of an unknown mixture/material,
- Compare the composition of several products (double or multi-sourcing),
- Checking the conformity of a product to a Safety Data Sheet (SDS) or a technical data sheet,
- Understanding an unusual phenomenon, etc.
What is a composite?
A composite is a material that consists of at least two materials of different nature.
When two or more materials are combined, a material is obtained which has all the properties of the materials used for its manufacture and is thus a more efficient material.
A composite is made up of :
-A framework called reinforcement that ensures the mechanical strength of the composite material for example: fiberglass, carbon, hemp, linen.
– a matrix which protects the reinforcement
There is today a large number of composite materials, in particular fiberglass, reinforced concrete, plywood…
FILAB supports you in the deformation analysis of your composites.
Thanks to its experience and its state-of-the-art analytical equipment (2100m² analysis laboratory), FILAB laboratory offers you its services for the analysis of deformation of composite materials.

Chemical analysis of the composition of the composite material from the mixtures of matrix, reinforcement and additive.
Characterization of composite material properties: length, diameter, degree of impregnation in the mass...
Accompaniment from the design to the evolution of your products based on composite materials
Study of failures on composite materials: aging, breakage, non-conformity, appearance of deposits or particles ...
For this, our laboratory has a Scanning Electron Microscope, coupled with an EDX probe, and numerous GC-MS and Py-GCMS equipments allowing to study the composition of the composite (carbon fiber, glass fiber, ceramic…).
In addition, thermogravimetric analysis by ATG coupled with FTIR will highlight the physico-chemical specificities of the composite material according to the temperatures.
