In this Tech Tip, we will overview the TRIOS Kinetics Software Package, available as an add-on to our standard TRIOS software from TA Instruments.
Rheology of Coatings and Inks Coatings and inks are two of the most common structured fluids that are characterized on rotational rheometers. Rheometers offer experimentalists many opportunities to perform selected tests that can reveal information about the properties of the fluids and allow one to predict the processability of these systems. Of particular interest are…
