Rotational Rheometer: RheolabQC
RheolabQC is a rotational rheometer based on state-of-the-art technologies also used in R&D rheometers. It combines unrivaled performance with easy operation and robust design. From quick single-point checks over flow curve and yield point determinations to complex rheological investigations: RheolabQC sets new standards for carrying out routine rheological tests. This powerful rheometer is an excellent example of a modern measuring instrument utilizing all available technical possibilities to ensure flexible, reliable and simple operation.
Key Features
Viscosity measurement – From single point up to complex rheological tests
The RheolabQC rotational rheometer measures the dynamic viscosity of low-viscosity up to semi-solid samples. Besides single-point determinations, flow curves and viscosity curves can be performed to study the sample’s rheological behavior: Simply evaluate with RheolabQC whether your sample is ideally viscous (Newtonian), shear-thinning (pseudoplastic) or even shear-thickening (dilatant). Yield point determinations, thixotropy, and temperature tests provide important insight into the sample’s behavior. Users can choose between controlled shear rate (CSR) and controlled shear stress (CSS) settings. Very fast speed and torque changes (within ms) are possible thanks to the powerful, highly dynamic EC motor drive.
Quick and accurate temperature control
A Peltier temperature device (temperature range: 0 °C to 180 °C) is available for RheolabQC. The Peltier system features fast heating rates (8 K/min) and cooling rates (4 K/min), and excellent temperature accuracy.
