Applications for Isothermal Heatflow Calorimetry – Lithium Ion Battery Chemistry
Overview It is now well established that the calendar life and cycle life of Li and Li-ion cells and batteries is highly dependent upon the secondary reactions that occur between the electrodes and the cell electrolyte. These reactions are often referred to as parasitic reactions, as they generally result in the loss of…

Applications of Tribo Rheometry in Material Characterization
Overview Tribology is the study of friction between two interacting surfaces. Traditionally encompassing friction-based studies of lubrication and wear, the applications of this field has expanded into different industries such as food and beverage (e.g: quantify mouthfeel and texture), personal care (e.g: quantify skin-feel), asphalt (e.g: development of warm mix asphalt technologies) and rubbers…

Applying Dynamic Mechanical Analysis (DMA) to Test the Durability of Protective Sports Equipment
There is a renewed interest in the durability of protective sports equipment after Patrick Mahomes’ helmet recently cracked apart in -4 degrees Fahrenheit (-20 degrees Celsius) weather. Scientists from TA Instruments ran tests to find out if materials found in protective sports equipment can break due to cold weather.

Applying Rheo-Microscopy to Understand The Rheology of Suspensions & Emulsions
Overview Rheo-microscopy combines rheological measurements with simultaneous investigation of the material’s microstructure, and how it may evolve in response to external stresses or strain fields. This webinar will showcase the power of rheo-microscopy for an accurate interpretation of rheological data in the context of three case studies, each on a different material and using…

ARES-G2
The ARES-G2 is the most advanced rotational rheometer for research and material development. It remains the only commercially available rheometer with a dedicated actuator for deformation control, Torque Rebalance Transducer (TRT), and Force Rebalance Transducer (FRT) for independent shear stress and normal stress measurements. It is recognized by the rheological community as the industry standard to which all other rheometer measurements are compared for accuracy.
