Webinar Part II: Advanced Rheometric Applications for Aging/Mutating Systems In this second part of the webinar series on rheometric applications, we explore advanced applications of Optimally Windowed Chirps (or OWCh) to characterize complex material systems, including aging thixotropic systems such as clay dispersions. We describe how user control of the initial phase and the frequency…
Webinar Part I: Basics of the Optimally-Windowed Exponential Chirp In this two‑part webinar, we illustrate how modern broadband rheometric techniques can be used to measure the material functions of what may broadly be referred to as mutating materials (or changing materials), with rheological properties that are both time‑ and frequency‑dependent. Numerous approaches have been proposed…
Improving Li-ion Battery Technology through Advanced Material Analysis TA Instruments and Oxford Instruments invite you to join us for an informative session discussing key advancements in battery development technologies. As the number of use-cases for battery products expand rapidly, standards for performance and reliability are becoming more demanding and exacting than ever before. Technologies provided…
Overview In order to meet growing market demands for power storage, Lithium ion and new battery chemistries demand higher energy density, longer cycle life, calendar life, and better safety to a lower cost. Isothermal microcalorimetry is a highly sensitive, non-destructive and non-specific tool to characterize these critical performance criteria. Learn how this method provides:…
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…
