Compendium: Flexible solutions for advanced material development

Modern material development encompasses multiple steps from small-scale production and material characterization up to process optimization. One platform can serve these multiple research tasks – the Thermo Scientific HAAKE PolyLab System.

The HAAKE PolyLab has a flexible platform that allows accessories to be attached for compounding, extrusion, small batch mixing, viscosity determination and process fingerprint determination among other tasks. Download our free compendium to see how this one system spans many applications including:

Small-scale rubber production and analysis of different rubber compounds using Garvey tests, die-swell measurements and other tests methods
Quantification of conductivity during compounding
Determination of stabilizers on the flow and degradation behavior of polymers
Effective compounding of challenging nanomaterial fillers
Development and characterization of feedstock for powder injection molding
The influence of handling and process parameters on sensitive compounds
Flow behavior testing of ceramic injection molding compounds
Introduction of die designs enabling rapid rheological characterization and simulation of process conditions
