FORENSIC ANALYSIS + PROOF
INDEPENDENT LAB ANALYSIS
Polyfuze Mono Material Proven by Advanced MicroAnalytical Laboratory.
Advanced MicroAnalytical provides solutions to complex problems involving materials analysis from the identification of unknown materials to product viability and quality control on a vast array of sample sources and types. SEM analysis provides detailed, high resolution imaging capabilities at a very wide range of magnifications from 10x to 1Mx magnification on a diverse and large group of sample types. This flexibility, as well as the dynamic, high depth of field images obtained with this analysis makes it a go-to method to gain structural insight on a wide range of sample types.
Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) Analysis
Data shows that linear surface adhesion samples were ineffective in forming a truly permanent bond with the base HDPE Test Plaques when compared to Polyfuze label materials.
UNDERSTANDING THE EVIDENCE
HOW TO READ THESE RESULTS
START WITH THE CONDITIONS BEHIND THE RESULT.
Every report describes a specific material, sample and set of test conditions. Check the substrate, graphic construction, exposure, duration and acceptance criteria before applying the findings to your product.

VALIDATION + SPECIFICATION
NEED A VALIDATION PLAN?
START WITH PROVEN METHODS. ADAPT THEM TO THE PRODUCT.
Use existing standards to build a specification for your product. Define the identity system, select the relevant test methods, and agree on what passing looks like before testing begins. Polyfuze can help turn those requirements into a practical validation plan.
SYSTEM DEFINITION
Product and material definition. Identity function and expected life. Manufacturing and application process.
TEST PLAN
Expected exposures. Applicable industry methods. Modified or application-specific tests.
ACCEPTANCE + GOVERNANCE
Inspection and measurement. Acceptance criteria. Documentation and approval. Revalidation triggers after material or process changes.
