In Search of Calorimetric Answers to Events In Self Assemblies
In Search of Calorimetric Answers to Events In Self Assemblies In this TA Webinar, Professor Nand Kishore discusses how to best discover and interpret protein folding, ligand binding, aggregation and molecular partitioning in self assemblies. Isothermal titration (ITC) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) are powerful tools for thermodynamic characterization of protein folding intermediates, drug-protein…
Extensional Rheology in Polymer Processing
Extensional Rheology in Polymer Processing Extensional flows dominate many polymer processes, including blow molding, film blowing, fiber spinning, thermoforming and many others. The rheology of polymeric materials under extensional flows can differ significantly from shear flows and it is important to understand this in order to optimize both materials and processes. In this webinar, we…
An Introduction to Tribo-Rheometry: Quantifying Friction
An Introduction to Tribo-Rheometry: Quantifying Friction Tribology complements rheology, providing information on solid-solid interactions that adds insight to the bulk fluid measurements of rheology. Tribology is especially concerned with quantifying the coefficient of friction as a function of sliding speed and load force, under dry or lubricated conditions. This provides useful information about lubrication, wear,…
Rheo-Microscopy: Bridging Rheology, Microstructure & Dynamics
Rheo-Microscopy: Bridging Rheology, Microstructure & Dynamics The combination of optical microscopy with rheological tests enables direct observation of material structure under shear deformation. This provides critical information that can help understand, predict, and tune the material response under processing, storage, or end-use conditions.
Morphology Of Complex Nanoparticle Mixtures
Morphology Of Complex Nanoparticle Mixtures The performance of new materials and devices depend heavily on morphological considerations: degree of crystallinity, conformation of amorphous species, and relative organization of one species with respect to another, characteristics which can be determined by thermal analysis. These considerations are important for functional materials such as photovoltaics and MEMS devices,…
Q800 DMA Pack
Q Series Trade-In The Q Series™ instruments will enter their End-of-Life at the end 2024. Repair and maintenance will be done on “best-effort” after 2024. However, it should be noted that our ability to make these repairs is subject to availability of parts. In the attempt to facilitate the transition to the current Discovery Series,…
