This case study evaluates tensile testing of vulcanised rubber and thermoplastic elastomers per ASTM D412-16 (2021), using the Vector U200 non-contact extensometer. Results confirmed reliable yield, tensile strength, and elongation measurements, despite challenges with extreme strain and low loadcell sensitivity.
