Developments in Advanced Recycling
Summary Although mechanical recycling is the dominant technology today, it is not enough to meet the plastic industry’s growing sustainability needs. Mechanical recycling requires high-quality, clean, and sorted recycled waste, which is only a small fraction of all recycled plastic. The products of mechanical recycling often have degraded properties compared to virgin polymers. In contrast,…
DetailsDetermining Thermal Stability of Antibodies with a Nano DSC
The interaction between the antigen binding site and an antigen is extremely specific, which has made antibodies very highly desirable reagents when developing a wide variety of antigen detection assays.

DetailsDetermining the Linear Viscoelastic Region in Oscillatory Measurements
This note will describe the linear viscoelastic region (LVR) and how to determine the LVR in oscillatory experiments for the purpose of obtaining quality data. All aspects of the LVR discussed in this note are general to viscoelastic samples, including (but in no way limited to) polymers, foods, gels, creams, pastes, slurries, emulsions, and inks.
DetailsDetermine Viscoelasticity and Spreadability of Cream Cheese
The viscoelasticity and spreadability properties of cream cheeses can be quantitatively evaluated using TA Instruments Discovery Hybrid Rheometer.
DetailsDetermination of the Relative Oxidative Stability of Polyethylene Bottle Tops by Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC)
Oxidative degradation of polymers is an exothermic process (releases heat) and is detectable by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). Furthermore, DSC evaluation of polyethylene at elevated temperatures in the presence of oxygen is an effective method for accelerating the onset of degradation so that longer term (shelf life) properties can be predicted and/or compared.
DetailsDetermination of Polymer Blend Composition
The blending of two or more polymers is becoming a common method for developing new materials for demanding applications such as impact-resistant parts and packaging films.
DetailsDetermination of Parasitic Power in Lithium-ion Batteries using the Battery Cycler Microcalorimeter Solution
Thermogravimetric 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.
