Website Answers Printing Ink Rheometers Questions

Malvern Instruments has extended the rheology resources available on the company's website with the addition of a new 'FAQ' section to help customers optimise their use of capillary rheometers.

Malvern Instruments has extended the rheology resources available on the company's website with the addition of a new 'FAQ' section to help customers optimise their use of capillary rheometers.

Capillary rheometers simulate high shear rate conditions.

Conventionally they are associated with polymer processing applications but are used increasingly in the paints and inks sectors.

Questions covering basic and advanced features, as well as applications of capillary rheometers are answered clearly and concisely, said the company.

The FAQ section includes details of the way a capillary rheometer works, the types of sample that can be analysed and how to configure a system for optimum performance.

Issues connected with the measurement of different parameters and the practical applications of measured data are also addressed.

Malvern supplies floor-standing and bench top systems, meeting all user requirements from research applications to more routine testing, said the company.
