Hardness is a material's resistance to plastic deformation. There are several methods to measure hardness, including indentation tests (Rockwell, Brinell, Vickers), scratch tests, and rebound tests. Indentation tests involve pressing an indenter into the material under a controlled load and measuring the resulting indentation. Hardness scales are used to compare materials based on these measurements.

1. OBJECT
The hardness test is a mechanical test for material properties which are used in engineering
design, analysis of structures, and materials development. The principal purpose of the
hardness test is to determine the suitability of a material for a given application, or the
particular treatment to which the material has been subjected. The ease with which the
hardness test can be made has made it the most common method of inspection for metals and
alloys.

Clay is a mineral, belonging to phyllosilicate category.
Chemically it consists of aluminium silicate as a principal component along with variety of other metals like magnesium, calcium, potassium and varying level of watermolecules.
Atomic configuration of clays consists of alternating ‘sheets’ of tetrahedral SiO4 and octahedral AlO6 units formed by oxygen sharing
Organoclay is the organically modified pyllosillicate,derived from a naturally occuring clay mineral.
By exchanging the original inter layer cations for organo cations (typically alkylammonium ions) an organophillic surface is generated, consisting of covalently linked organic moieties.
The lamellar structure remains analoguos to the parent phyllosilicate.
Separation of the layers due to ion exchange from the initial interlayer spacing of as little as 3 Å in the case of Na + cations to the distances in the range of 10 - 40 Å as well as the change of chemical character of the clay surface , allows the insitu polymerisation or mixing with certain polymers to obtain what is known as nano composite.

2. Hardness is the property of a material that enables it to
resist plastic deformation, usually by penetration.
However, the term hardness may also refer to resistance to
bending, scratching, abrasion or cutting.
Hardness is dependent on ductility, elastic stiffness,
plasticity, strain, strength, toughness, viscoelasticity, and
viscosity.
Common examples of hard matter are ceramics, concrete,
certain metals, and super hard materials, which can be
contrasted with soft matter.
3. Hardness is not an intrinsic material property
dictated by precise definitions in terms of
fundamental units of mass, length and time. A
hardness property value is the result of a defined
measurement procedure.
There are three main types of hardness
measurements: scratch, indentation, and rebound.
Within each of these classes of measurement there
are individual measurement scales.
4. METHODS OF MRASUREMENT OF HARDNESS
ARE FOLLWING
1. Rockwell Hardness Test
2. Brinell Hardness Test
3. Vickers Hardness Test
4. Microhardness Test
5. Mohs Hardness Test
6. Scleroscope Hardness Test
5. The Rockwell hardness test method consists of indenting the test material
with a diamond cone or hardened steel ball indenter. The indenter is
forced into the test material under a preliminary minor load F0 (Fig. 1A)
usually 10 kgf. When equilibrium has been reached, an indicating device,
which follows the movements of the indenter and so responds to changes
in depth of penetration of the indenter is set to a datum position. While
the preliminary minor load is still applied an additional major load is
applied with resulting increase in penetration (Fig. 1B). When equilibrium
has again been reach, the additional major load is removed but the
preliminary minor load is still maintained. Removal of the additional
major load allows a partial recovery, so reducing the depth of penetration
(Fig. 1C). The permanent increase in depth of penetration, resulting from
the application and removal of the additional major load is used to
calculate the Rockwell hardness number.
HR = E - e
6. The Brinell hardness test method consists of indenting the test
material with a 10 mm diameter hardened steel or carbide ball
subjected to a load of 3000 kg. For softer materials the load can be
reduced to 1500 kg or 500 kg to avoid excessive indentation. The
full load is normally applied for 10 to 15 seconds in the case of iron
and steel and for at least 30 seconds in the case of other metals. The
diameter of the indentation left in the test material is measured with
a low powered microscope. The Brinell harness number is
calculated by dividing the load applied by the surface area of the
indentation
7. The Vickers hardness test method consists of indenting the test material
with a diamond indenter, in the form of a right pyramid with a square
base and an angle of 136 degrees between opposite faces subjected to a
load of 1 to 100 kgf. The full load is normally applied for 10 to 15
seconds. The two diagonals of the indentation left in the surface of the
material after removal of the load are measured using a microscope and
their average calculated. The area of the sloping surface of the
indentation is calculated. The Vickers hardness is the quotient obtained
by dividing the kgf load by the square mm area of indentation.
8. The term microhardness test usually refers to static indentations made with
loads not exceeding 1 kgf. The indenter is either the Vickers diamond pyramid
or the Knoop elongated diamond pyramid. The procedure for testing is very
similar to that of the standard Vickers hardness test, except that it is done on a
microscopic scale with higher precision instruments. The surface being tested
generally requires a metallographic finish; the smaller the load used, the higher
the surface finish required. Precision microscopes are used to measure the
indentations; these usually have a magnification of around X500 and measure to
an accuracy of +0.5 micrometres. Also with the same observer differences of
+0.2 micrometres can usually be resolved. It should, however, be added that
considerable care and experience are necessary to obtain this accuracy.
KHN = F/A = P/CL2
9. Comparing the indentations made with Knoop and Vickers Diamond
Pyramid indenters for a given load and test material:
Vickers indenter penetrates about twice as deep as Knoop indenter
Vickers indentation diagonal about 1/3 of the length of Knoop major
diagonal
Vickers test is less sensitive to surface conditions than Knoop test
Vickers test is more sensitive to measurement errors than knoop test
Vickers test best for small rounded areas
Knoop test best for small elongated areas
Knoop test good for very hard brittle materials and very thin sections
10. The Mohs hardness scale for minerals has been
used since 1822. It simply consists of 10 Diamond 10
minerals arranged in order from 1 to 10. Corundu
Diamond is rated as the hardest and is indexed 9
m
as 10; talc as the softest with index number 1. Topaz 8
Each mineral in the scale will scratch all those
below it as follows: Quartz 7
The hardness is determined by finding which of Orthoclas
the standard minerals the test material will e
6
scratch or not scratch; the hardness will lie (Feldspar
)
between two points on the scale - the first point
being the mineral which is scratched and the Apatite 5
next point being the mineral which is not Fluorite 4
scratched. Some examples of the hardness of
Calcite 3
common metals in the Mohs scale are copper
between 2 and 3 and tool steel between 7 and 8. Gypsum 2
Talc 1
11. The Scleroscope test consists of dropping a diamond tipped hammer,
which falls inside a glass tube under the force of its own weight from a
fixed height, onto the test specimen. The height of the rebound travel of
the hammer is measured on a graduated scale. The scale of the rebound
is arbitrarily chosen and consists on Shore units, divided into 100 parts,
which represent the average rebound from pure hardened high-carbon
steel. The scale is continued higher than 100 to include metals having
greater hardness.
In normal use the shore scleroscope test does not mark the material
under test. The Shore Scleroscope measures hardness in terms of the
elasticity of the material and the hardness number depends on the height
to which the hammer rebounds, the harder the material, the higher the
rebound. Advantages of this method are portability and non-marking of
the test surface.
