Rheometry sample contract testingKeywords: Bohlin, Rheometry
Bohlin Instruments is one of the leading suppliers of rotational and capillary rheometers for a wide range of industrial and research applications.
The company has recently launched a rheometry contracting service enabling customers to understand the benefit of rheological measurements for their sample types before committing to an instrument purchase. The service is also appealing for those who need "one off" measurements or simply need a specialist test service.
Based at its prestigious headquarters in Cirencester (UK), Bohlin have a large applications laboratory that contains a complete range of rotational and capillary rheometers configured with a selection of temperature control units for multi- application testing. Typical measurement techniques include shear and extensional viscosity, temperature profiling, thixotropic characterisation, creep and recovery, oscillation, stress relaxation and normal force.
Samples provided for rheology testing are charged on a daily basis and the measurement data is provided as part of a laboratory report, which can also be supplied in convenient electronic format.
