The Automotive Interiors EXPO 2019 will unite world leading vehicle brands, auto designers and manufacturers of vehicle interior components, over the course of three days in Novi, Michigan. This year’s focus is all about quality, color, texture, touch, feel and innovation. You’ll find a wide range of fabrics, acoustical materials, shape-forming materials and foams, and more! The show is a must-visit for those who wanting to keep up with the rapidly changing world of materials, finishes and technologies that contribute to ‘touch and feel’.
Thermtest will be exploring a new market for their transient plane source effusivity meter by attending the annual tradeshow this coming October 22-24, 2019. Come check us out at booth A117! Participating the exhibit will be Dale Hume, Thermtest President, and Joli McGraw, Marketing Coordinator.
Thermtest will showcase their TPS-EFF to conduct live testing of auto interior materials. The Transient Plane Source TPS-EFFusivity Meter is a portable meter for direct determination of thermal effusivity of textiles, fabrics and solids, in accordance with ASTM D7984-16.

Sample 1: Testing Thermal Effusivity at 1 lb compression force
| SAMPLE: Memory Foam | |
|---|---|
| Compression Force: | 1 lb |
| Test time (2 seconds): | 73 W√s/m2K |
Sample 2: Testing Thermal Effusivity at 2 lb compression force
| SAMPLE: Memory Foam | |
|---|---|
| Compression Force: | 2 lb |
| Test time (2 seconds): | 99 W√s/m2K |
When the foam is compressed, there is an increase in density, which increases the thermal effusivity.
