DSC |
||
| TA Instruments 2910 Differential Scanning Calorimeter | ||
 |
Our DSC allows us to characterize the thermal response of our polymer products. Exotherm energy, glass transition points, melting points are among the key properties clearly identified by this instrument. |
 |
FT-IR |
||
| Nicolet Nexus 470 FT-IR Spectrometer | ||
 |
A variety of sampling techniques such as Ge ATR and transmission through thin polymer film allows us the capability to characterize the chemical fingerprints of polymers in the mid-IR region. |
|
Physical Tests |
||
| MTS Q Test 25 |  |
Our versatile physical tester is used to measure tensile strength, elongation, compressive and flexural properties and adhesion to various materials. |
Thermocouple Data Acquisition |
||
| Measurment Computing USB-TC Thermocouple | ||
 |
With capabilities of up to 8 thermocouple channels, our USB-TC allows us to capture the reaction profile and exotherm of a curing polymer in several defined areas. This can be run at various temperatures to show the effect of mass, geometry and surrounding materials on heat generation and dissipation to assure a low stress casting. |
|
Rheology |
||
| Brookfield Viscometers | ||
The variety of Brookfield viscometers that we have at our facility allows analyze the rheology of our products at both ambient temperature and elevated temperatures. |
