Effect of Thermal Degradation on Polymer Thermal Properties
In this Applications note, we demonstrate using TGA to precisely control the degree of degradation to be < 5wt% and characterize the impact of degrees of degradation on polymer thermal properties.
DetailsEffect of Moisture on Cohesion Strength of Carboxymethyl Cellulose Powder
The impact of moisture content on cohesion strength is measured using the TA Instruments Powder Rheology Accessory. It was found that as moisture content increases, cohesion strength also increases, demonstrating the importance of controlling humidity during processing.
DetailsEffect of Moisture and Substrate Material on Wall Friction Angle of Carboxymethyl Cellulose Powder
This work investigates the influence of moisture content and substrate material on the wall friction of carboxymethyl cellulose powder, which is used as an excipient in tablet formulations.

Dynamic Mechanical Analysis – Materials to Final Products
From plastic for medical devices to rubber for tires, the materials we use must meet increasingly high demands. Product manufacturers and consumers expect their materials to look good, perform well, and cost less, all while being environmentally friendly. Fulfilling all these expectations requires deep understanding of material behavior from the molecular level to real world mechanical properties. Since there are many factors that affect the properties of materials, precise measurement tools and methods are required to ensure that materials fulfill the high expectations of our world. A key measurement and analysis method to evaluate the properties of materials at various stages of development and production is Dynamic Mechanical Analysis (DMA).
