Polymers are viscoelastic fluids that are either elastic or viscous, depending on how fast they flow or deformation in the process. The viscoelastic phenomenon, as shown in Figure 1, can be easily ...

In most cases the additional moisture increases the plasticity of the PET melt, resulting in a higher flowability. As a result of hygroscopic behavior PET’s melt flow rate (MFR) parameters are highly ...

Easy-to-use, compact analyzer makes rheological insights more accessible to quality testing laboratories and material production facilities in batteries, pharmaceuticals, food, consumer goods, and ...

Rheological analysis has become an indispensable tool for the food industry, helping to increase manufacturing efficiency, reduce product failures and ensure consistent textures that consumers trust.
