Higher data acquisition rates for this rheometer

| By Chemical Engineering

This company has extended its rheometer accessory range to support ultraviolet (UV) curing cell requirements. With common oscillatoric shear methods, it is often difficult to monitor UV-induced reactions that may occur in just a few seconds during the curing process. The company has developed a fast-oscillation mode for its Haake Mars rheometer to address this challenge. The new method allows a higher data acquisition rate of 500 Hz — independent of the oscillation frequency — to meet the needs of very fast-curing materials. — Thermo Fisher Scientific, Karlsruhe, Germany
