Fasttrack – Software for Asphalt Binder Testing
Fasttrack is a dedicated software package optimized for testing and grading asphalt binders using TA Instruments DHR and AR series Dynamic Shear Rheometers (DSRs). Thoughtfully designed with the operator in mind, Fasttrack consists of an intuitive, easy-to-use graphical interface and a full suite of AASHTO and ASTM tests relevant to rheological testing of asphalt…
DetailsExtensional Viscosity Fixture (EVF)
Extensional Viscosity Fixture (EVF) The most sensitive, easy-to-use system for extensional viscosity of polymers. DescriptionFeaturesTechnologyApplications The Extensional Viscosity Fixture (EVF) is a patented system that facilitates extensional viscosity measurements of highly viscous materials such as polymer melts, dough, and adhesives on the ARES-G2. Understanding the material behavior under extensional deformation is relevant to a wide…
DetailsExtensional Rheology in Polymer Processing
Extensional flows dominate many polymer processes, including blow molding, film blowing, fiber spinning, thermoforming and many others. The rheology of polymeric materials under extensional flows can differ significantly from shear flows and it is important to understand this in order to optimize both materials and processes. In this webinar, we will: Introduce examples of extensional…
