Abstract
Micro-injection moulded specimens and components were investigated using instrumented indentation testing and tensile testing. Conventional nano indentation testing, from which hardness and modulus can be obtained, is useful for the characterization of thermoplastics and filled thermoplastics. The difficulties of indentation measurements on LCPs can be overcome by a cantilever beam arrangement. Optical strain measurement is suitable for the description of the (local) deformation behaviour of micro scaled polymeric components.
