Overview New product design is expedited by gathering product performance metrics early in the compound development process. These key metrics link to final product performance and answer common questions: How will my product perform in its final application? Is performance guaranteed over the lifetime of the product? Predicting mechanical rigidity, suitability to end-use environmental conditions,…
DetailsOverview The viscoelastic properties of polymers play a critical role in the different stages of polymer processing operations, whether it is melting and extrusion or the performance of the final product. On most polymer data sheets, these properties are presented in the form of a melt flow index. However, this simplistic approach is inherently…
DetailsQ 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,…

DetailsIn this special tech tip on the new WinTest DMA Software v8, we walk through the applications of the waveform setup panel in Wintest for Electroforce systems!
In this TA Techtip, we’ll walk through the correctly configuring the solution calorimeter for use in the TAM IV system.
DetailsCone and Partitioned Plate Accessory Delay edge fracture for unprecedented non-linear rheology measurements. Description Features Technology Applications The new ARES-G2 Cone and Partitioned Plate Accessory (CPP) expands testing capabilities for highly elastic materials at large deformations in both oscillation and steady shear. The CPP geometry is a modification of the conventional cone-plate test configuration in…
DetailsMechanical testing techniques are commonly used to quantify the compression characteristics of such devices. The goal of these tests is to determine a relationship between the compressive displacement and the resulting force on the devices. A precise and accurate assessment of force against displacement can be performed by using the ElectroForce® 3200 Series III test instrument.
