Viscosity at different temperature and shear rate

A Brookfield Engineering Laboratories product story
Edited by the Laboratorytalk editorial team Sep 18, 2006

Brookfield's top off the line rheometer, the R/S Plus, now features expanded temperature range (up to 180C), speed range (from 0.1 to 1000rpm), improved control resolution and measurement sensitivity

Manufacturers often wonder what will happen to their product flow behavior when temperature and shear rate change.

Fortunately, the Brookfield R/S Plus Rheometer can help eliminate the guess work, thereby ensuring the quality and consistency of your product.

Brookfield's top off the line rheometer, the R/S Plus, now features expanded temperature range (up to 180C), speed range (from 0.1 to 1000rpm), and improved control resolution and measurement sensitivity.

Together these features give the laboratory technician the tools needed to accurately assess the changes caused by variable temperature and shear rate.

The R/S Plus rheometer also features built-in Peltier temperature control.

This design saves valuable bench space, eliminating the need for a separate bath.

The Peliter device allows for much faster temperature change as compared with a traditional bath, increasing test speed and lab efficiency.

The R/S Plus rheometer's higher resolution encoder provides improved control at low torque and shear rates, delivering increased sensitivity at low shear rates for smoother data, a more precise static yield test capability and more information for creep testing.

The R/S Plus is engineered to meet the demands of quality control labs and to provide sophisticated flexibility for research environments as well as the production floor.
