Development Of A New Method To Measure The Creep Behavior Of Rubber With The Addition Of Bentonite Based On Scanner-Based Image Processing

Creep test is important to determine the amount of strain a specimen can withstand under pressure to identify the suitability of this material to certain application. There are several methods that are used to measure rubber creep such as uniaxial tensile creep measurement apparatus, digital image c...
