DetailsTA thermal analysis systems consistently produce the flattest baselines, the sharpest peaks and the highest sensitivity. Now, from the World Leader in Thermal Analysis, the only 5-year warranty on cells and furnaces.
From material selection and failure analysis to end-use application, Dynamic Mechanical Analysis (DMA) offers crucial polymer insights. Polymer scientists and design engineers pair DMA with fatigue testing to gain a complete view of their material’s properties and performance attributes.
DetailsTechnology is rapidly advancing. Whether you upgrade old equipment or add a new technique to your bench, using cutting-edge instrumentation is sure to enhance your lab’s efficiency and results. Today’s instruments offer more reliable data and advanced features, both of which are crucial for staying at the forefront of material innovation.
DetailsIn this TA TechTip, we will set up the 3-point bending clamp for DMA mode testing on the ARES-G2 rotational rheometer.
DetailsOverview 3-D printing and additive manufacturing are growing segments due to the extreme versatility of the printable materials. The application of such technologies are numerous (rapid prototyping, complex shapes…) and require different materials with different properties. Thermal analysis can be a valuable tool to evaluate the way a material keeps its internal structure during…
DetailsSaving time in polymer research has many benefits and can be realized in different ways, from reducing operator training time to increasing research throughput and achieving accurate and reproducible results. Here are 3 opportunities across 3 techniques (rheology, TGA, and DSC) which offer solutions to save time in your polymer research.
DetailsHigh-performance polymers are a critical material for manufacturers due to their combination of mechanical, thermal, and chemical properties, but especially their cost. Without adequate testing, manufacturers could run into a slew of issues, from immediate product failure to poor performance or failure after some time in usage.
DetailsThe purpose of this paper is to provide a universally acceptable definition of “Melting” and then illustrate that loss of crystalline structure in many materials can be caused by numerous chemical processes other than thermodynamic or “True Melting”.
