Rheology is a notoriously complex field, combining mathematics and physics to characterize materials. For inexperienced users, rheology can seem like a massive challenge. Luckily, new technology simplifies rheology down to its core so you can get essential measurements without difficult training, measurements, or calculations.
If you’re working with materials that can be flowed, for example within pharmaceutical, food, cosmetics, or petrochemical industries, it’s likely that there is a viscometer in the laboratory that is the go-to instrument for formulation testing or QA purposes. However, does this viscometer give you the whole picture and fully meet all your needs?
Our world is brimming with viscoelastic materials: The dough you knead before baking a fresh loaf, the Silly Putty your toddler slaps against the wall, the rubber gaskets that create an airtight seal on an airplane door. Testing those materials by applying controlled deformations (strains) or forces (stresses) at various timescales, temperatures, and/or humidities allows for the optimization of properties and ensures durability and safety.
The composites market is evolving fast. Global market projections indicate a 10.8 % growth by 2028, driven by the demand for composites across industries looking for materials with superior performance at reduced weight and cost. This blog explores how advanced material analysis can enhance R&D and manufacturing processes in the composites market, ultimately leading to financial savings and increased efficiency.
Dynamic Mechanical Analysis (DMA) is a thermal analysis technique used to measure the mechanical properties of materials as they are deformed under periodic stress. DMA is commonly used to determine the viscoelastic behavior of polymers, composites, and other materials.
Will my paint coat the wall or drip off? Will my topical pharmaceutical spread on skin or form clumps? Rheology answers vital questions to inform how we create and interact with materials on a daily basis.
저는 주방에서 멋진 실험을 하는 게 좋아요. 특히 베이킹과 디저트가 관련된 실험을요. 파이 데이를 기념하여, 주방에서 파이 반죽과 필링… 그리고 레오미터를 활용해서 과학을 이용한 실험을 해 보겠습니다.
리튬 이온 배터리(LIB)는 다양한 활성 및 비활성 물질을 이용한 다단계 공정을 통해 제조됩니다. 소재 선정 및 공정 조건은 최종 배터리 성능에 큰 영향을 미칠 수 있습니다.
제형 개발부터 상용 제형까지의 진행은 최종 약물의 투여 강도, 기본적인 안정성 및 단백질 자기 집합 정도에 따라 달라집니다.1 이는 약물이 개발의 최종 단계에 도달하는 중이기 때문입니다.
Against the backdrop of a plastic waste crisis, the global demand for plastic is set to quadruple by 2060. This has driven a shift toward sustainability and away from linear use models of plastic production. Post-consumer resin (PCR) has emerged as a key player in circular economy initiatives, though ensuring the quality and performance of PCR requires several characterization considerations.
We expect a lot from our composites: rocket materials need to endure the heat of takeoff, wind turbines must withstand high wind gusts, and sneakers are expected to be durable and supportive on long runs. How do experts develop composites tailored to such specific uses and verify their properties?
가벼운 노트북에서 크로스컨트리 EV 주행에 이르기까지 수많은 응용 분야에서 리튬 이온 배터리의 에너지 밀도와 성능이 향상되어야 합니다. 배터리 전극은 배터리 기능의 이러한 측면에 직접적으로 관여하므로 전극과 그 구성 요소는 기술을 한 단계 더 발전시키려는 배터리 연구자들에게 특별한 관심 대상이 됩니다. 또한 배터리 슬러리 처리는 제조의 핵심 단계로 비용을 절감하면서 효율을 높일 수 있는 중요한 기회를 제공합니다.
