Overview Maintaining the optimum viscosity of a molten material is key for efficiency and product quality of many industrial processes. Processing of melts at high temperatures is the basis for classical or additive manufacturing of many materials like glasses or metals. Molten slag or ash viscosity is essential for economically operating industrial gasification processes…
DetailsMethods and Demonstration of Dynamic Mechanical Tests of Rubber This webinar focuses on dynamic mechanical testing principles and applications. This includes Dynamic Mechanical Analysis (DMA), Heat Build-up (aka Blow-out), and Fatigue testing methods. Example case studies with example data and conclusions are presented that illustrate results that can be obtained by leveraging ElectroForce mechanical test…
DetailsOverview This webinar addresses microcalorimetric testing can shed light on the effects of coatings and sterilization on material stability and how it can support the overall study of the rate, extent, and prevention of cell adhesion.
DetailsBiological macromolecules are fundamental components of every cell and are therefore essential for all life. These vital molecules are categorized into four major classes: carbohydrates, lipids, proteins, and nucleic acids. Characterizing biological macromolecules is important for understanding their functions and relationships, which empowers the development of new therapies and treatments. Under this branch of macromolecule research, biotherapeutic drug therapy focuses on macromolecular interactions which can lead to disease and/or cell death.
DetailsOverview In this Tech Tip, we will demonstrate how to prepare the disposable microfluidic sample chips for use in the TA Instruments Rapid Screening Differential Scanning Calorimeter (RS-DSC).
DetailsIn this Tech Tip, we will discuss how to easily introduce humidity during an experiment on the TAM IV.
DetailsThis study had a threefold purpose: 1) study the creep response of bone to repetitive phsyiologically-relevant loading 2) to perform these types of tests on a small scale; and, 3) to illustrate and identify age-related effects on the mechanical properties of bone.
DetailsThe Modular Microscope Accessory (MMA) for the DHR enables complete flow visualization, including counter-rotation, with simultaneous rheological measurements.
Modulated DSC (MDSC) was performed on a polypropylene (PP) battery separator to gain additional insights into the effects of stretching during processing of the film.
