What is it?
A rheometer measures the rheological properties of materials, which is the study of flow and deformation of a liquid, suspension or slurry in response to applied forces.
Manufacturer: ANTON PAAR
Model Name: MCR302
Applications: The Rheometer is essential for characterization of food materials from pastes and gels to weakly structured liquids. It performs rotational and oscillation tests to understand the interactions in food structure.
Instrument Overview: The rheometer is capable of measuring viscosity and elasticity of non-Newtonian materials under a wide range of conditions. Examples of the properties that can be measured includes viscoelasticity, yield stress, thixotropy, extensional viscosity, creep compliance and stress relaxation behaviour. Applied shear can be precisely controlled into the very low shear stress region making these instruments suitable for stability studies and the measurement of yield stress.
Technical features and specifications:
1. The system able to perform both rotational and oscillation test with a minimum Torque of 5.0 nNm and 0.5 nNm respectively.
2. The maximum Torque is 200 nNm.
3. The system have the capability to automatically recognise measuring geometries, temperature devices or application-specific accessories that are connected to the rheometer.
4. Temperature and shear rate can be closely controlled to simulate the processing environment of interest.
