Temperature Control - Electrical Systems (-130 ºC to +400 ºC)
The temperature control units with electrical heating are mainly used for high temperature measurements on polymer melts, hotmelt and curing materials such as resins or epoxy. The systems feature high heating and cooling rates as well as an excellent temperature accuracy and stability, and can be used in parallel plate and concentric cylinder setups. Both the plate and the hood are electrically heated, allowing virtually gradient-free measurements. The sample area can be flushed with inert gas to prevent degradation.Cone-plate and parallel plate systems
- Fast and accurate temperature control from room temperature to +400 ºC
- Extended temperature range to -130 ºC with liquid nitrogen
- Controlled evaporator for minimum nitrogen consumption
- Virtually gradient-free sample temperature control due to the electrically heated hood
- Disposable systems and measuring plates with different surfaces available
- Measurement under inert gas conditions possible
- Inset plates with various diameters for adaptation to the upper measuring system diameter
- Melt rheology, curing and DMTA measurements >>
Concentric cylinder systems
- Fast and accurate temperature control from room temperature up to +300 ºC
- For concentric cylinder and double-gap systems
- Can be equipped with disposable cups
- Pressure cells >> available for measurements in a closed environment or under increased pressure

Adhesives, Hotmelts, Sealants and Plastisols - Thermal behavior of a hotmelt adhesive
The rheological behavior of an adhesive (PSA = Pressure Sensitive Adhesive) has to be detected using a single measuring system on a large temperature scale. This range should go from low temperatures, when the polymer has a solid-state, rigid consistency, up to high temperatures, when the polymer ...
