The HPT is a stand-alone gas-medium test apparatus for rock deformation studies at high pressure and high temperature developed by Professor Mervyn Paterson at Australian National University.
The HPT provides a comprehensive facility for mechanical testing of materials at confining pressures up to 500 MPa and temperatures to 1600 K. It can also provide the basic high-pressure, high temperature enviroment for hot isostatic pressing (HIP), materials synthesis, and physical property measurements.
