Fitting Multiple Transitions in a Nano DSC Thermogram

Overview Nano DSC is a powerful and sensitive analytical tool for investigating protein structure, stability, and protein-ligand binding. Researchers in fields such as biomedical and pharmaceuticals are able to separate multiple domains that may not be visible with less sensitive instruments. In this tech tip, Dr. Cali Scholl walks us through data analysis when you…

Powder Rheology

  Description The Powder Rheology Accessory expands the DHR’s capabilities to powders, enabling characterization of behaviors during storage, dispensing, processing and end use.  Product development and process optimization are accelerated with quantitative measurements of dynamic flowability and shear properties of consolidated powder.  Screening new formulations or incoming raw materials detects unexpected behavior to avoid large-scale…

Setting Up the 3 Balls on Plate Geometry on the Discovery HR for Tribo-Rheometry Testing

Overview The three balls on plate tribo-rheometry accessory is designed for measuring the coefficient of friction of soft materials like food or solid surfaces like coatings. As one of the TA Instruments Discovery Hybrid Rheometer tribo-rheometry accessories, this geometry simplifies surface friction measurements on all DHR models. Advanced TRIOS software makes setup and control easy,…
