glass fiber tensile testing
glass fiber tensile testing
(OP)
I want to test the glass fiber strand under acidic condition. Don't want to etch it for long time and test. Just want to pass the fiber through plastic tube and somehow stop the acid to leak and pull in the two ends. Grips are made by epoxy.
Can anyone give me better suggestion on this ?

Could you leave the top of the tube open? Otherwise, run several test pulls of just the O-rings, grips, and tube, with and without acid, and use the data to give you a "zero". The O-ring friction will be minimal if you use a suitable lubricant (use EPDM O-rings plus a silicone grease liuke Dow #33).
Good luck.

Silicone adhesive made the fiber greasy which I don't want. But the glue might work. I will try but not sure the exposure to acid.
I can leave the top of the testing tube open while the naked fiber is immersed into water. Then.........
