This Applications Note discusses the advantages of the Discovery X3 DSC for thermoplastic analysis which includes the ability to identify potential differences in thermal properties as a function of thermal history.
Modulated DSC (MDSC) was performed on a polypropylene (PP) battery separator to gain additional insights into the effects of stretching during processing of the film.
Modulated thermomechanical analysis (MTMA) was performed on a polypropylene (PP) battery separator to gain further insight into the mechanism of the dimension change and coefficient of linear expansion (CLE or α).
The TA Instruments Powder Rheology Accessory was used with Discovery HR 30 rheometer to perform shear measurements. Duplicate measurements were performed with fresh samples under ambient conditions.
In this application note, a TA Discovery HR rotational rheometer facilitates coating optimization by measuring slurry viscosity over different shear rates that relate to coating speed. Drying kinetics are investigated with a Discovery TGA to yield the most cost-efficient condition.
