Polymer Rheology Masterclass (VA)

Join us for this polymer rheology masterclass designed to provide a sound basis of knowledge on how rheological measurements benefit those working with polymeric materials especially polyolefins.

Key learnings for the participant:  

Attendees will be provided a refresher on flow and viscoelastic properties followed by real world examples of the use of rheological measurements of polymer samples. By the end of the class, attendees will better understand which rheological test is appropriate for the solutions they seek.

Who should attend?   

The class is designed for all levels of prior knowledge. Students, professors, process engineers, plastics engineers, formulation chemists, and all persons interested in polymer rheology will benefit.

Daily Workshop Schedule:

  • 9:00: Welcome and Agenda Overview
  • 9:15: Instruction in Polymers, Basics of rheology, Importance of rheology for Polymers, Rotational test methods on a rheometer
  • 11:00: Oscillatory test methods on a rheometer
  • 11:45: Lunch
  • 12:30: Extensional Rheology (SER, UXF), Basics of DMA, DMTA on a single drive rheometer (UXF & SRF for torsional tests), DMTA on a Multi drive rheometer
  • 15:00: Advanced Polymer characterization using a rheometer
  • 16:00: Lab session
  • 17:00: End of class
