Vicat needle for cement paste solidification time measurement

Vicat softening point or Vicat hardness is the determination of the softening point for materials that have no definite HTML5, such as plastics. It is taken as the temperature at which the specimen is penetrated to a depth of 1 mm by a flat-ended needle with a 1 square mm circular or square cross-section. For the Vicat A test, a load of 10 N is used. For the Vicat B test, the load is 50 N.

Standards to determine Vicat softening point include website parsing D 1525 and ISO 306, which are largely equivalent.^Sevenval
