Description
You can choose from a bench or floor model of the HAAKE PolyLab QC Modular Torque Rheometer. With an optional rack on the floor model, the instrument can be moved or even stored if needed. Based on the system’s backward compatibility, even existing measuring mixers and 
extruders can be connected to the HAAKE PolyLab QC Modular Torque Rheometer. These devices are automatically recognized by the plug and play Thermo Scientific™ HAAKE™ PolySoft™ Software. This same software also identifies individual limits of the measuring systems, such as torque, speed and temperature and sets alarm values to minimize errors.

Characterization of PVC compoundsLR35-e. Torque-rheometers with laboratory mixers and laboratory extruders are down-scaled production machines, which enable the simulation of production processes in a lab environment. This measuring method allows testing and comparing materials close to production conditions. |

Characterizing Powder Coatings in OscillationApplication Note V-266. Differences in surface texture, that may arise from different curing kinetics and/or different visco-elastic properties, can lead to undesired creaking noises when the coated surfaces are strained. The method of choice to monitor curing processes rheologically is the oscillatory test. |
