Linear Viscoelastic Region: Why It’s Crucial in Materials Testing

Engineered Materials, Mechanical Testing, Pharmaceuticals, Polymers, 流變學, 食品

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.

Why DSC Testing is a Critical Step in Developing Biosimilar Drugs

Microcalorimetry, 生物製藥

Biologic therapies derived from living organisms have revolutionized the treatment of complex diseases, yet their high development costs are often passed onto patients. Biosimilar drugs offer a promising solution to reduce costs while maintaining therapeutic efficacy. Unlike generic drugs, biosimilars cannot be exact replicas of their reference biologics due to their complex structures, necessitating rigorous testing and regulatory approval.
