Isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC) is the best technique to obtain a complete understanding of the driving forces leading to a binding interaction. There have been significant advances to the technology and method development leading to a workflow solution for every lab.
Detailshis application note describes the importance of using thermal and rheological techniques to help fingerprinting the molecular architecture of the PET feedstocks.
DetailsHere we describe the application of an ARES Rheometer (TA Instruments) with a rectangular torsion fixture, to investigate the β-relaxation change of poly (ethyl methacrylate)/ graphene oxide. It is observed that graphene increases both the glass transition and the β-relaxation temperature, but the β-relaxation to a lesser extent.
DetailsThermogravimetric Analysis (TGA), which provides information about the thermal stability and decomposition rate of materials, is an excellent technique for rapidly comparing the behavior of materials tested with different flame retardants.
DetailsThis application note will investigate the slurry aging and stability through its flow behavior and viscoelastic properties by using rheological methods. The slurry studied demonstrates a decrease in stability over time, which can be used to indicate the appropriate batch lifetime in a production environment.
DetailsThis note illustrates the advantages of working with a thermogravimetric instrument in an inert environment by way of a simple example with a water sensitive material.
DetailsIn this note, TGA will be performed on natural and synthetic graphite of various particle sizes. The analysis will provide information that would find value in quality control settings, such as batch consistency and impurities.
DetailsRheology is an indispensable tool to characterize structural molecular changes induced due to processing conditions and processing time.
DetailsThis note investigates the degradation kinetics of virgin and recycled polyethylene terephthalate fibers used for 3D printing through TGA, finding similar lifetime predictions for the samples studied.
DetailsIn this work, the thermal degradation process of nylon 66 was studied using TGA-MS, TGA-FTIR and TGA-GC/MS in inert gas environments. These techniques together can provide a lot of insights of the thermal degradation process and its off-gas products.
DetailsIn this note, the thermal properties of nylon gears with increasing mass fractions of recycled material are evaluated.
DetailsThe purpose of this study is to characterize three phase change materials (PCMs) – one paraffin wax and two beeswaxes. PCMs are widely used for thermal energy storage and thermal management due to their high latent heat storage ability.
