White Paper Analytical Instruments for Optimizing Polymer Processing Processing conditions can influence a polymer’s performance as much as its chemical formulation. The material’s thermal and shearing history and its fillers, fibers, stabilizers, or other additives help determine many of its properties. Laboratory analysis can help optimize polymer processing conditions, diagnose issues in an existing process,…
DetailsThe drive for consumers, brand owners, and corporations to become more eco-conscious in their purchases has led to an increased demand in sustainably sourced materials. Several industries have started initiatives to incorporate the use of recycled materials as well as bio-derived materials. In the case of bio-derived materials, industries using polymers have interest in biopolymers; however, these materials come with unique challenges.
