Dielectric Spectrometer
The Dielectro-Rheological Device (DRD) is a dielectric spectrometer that combines rheology (as a mechanical spectroscopy method) and dielectric spectroscopy to provide deeper insight into sample behavior while an electric field is applied.
Key features
Dielectric spectrometers that extend capabilities
- Simultaneous dielectric and impedance analysis of dielectric and conductive materials, and rheological measurements
- Evaluation of mechanical deformation on the conductivity, capacity, and permittivity of a sample
- Extension of the MCR rheometer to a measurable frequency range
- Stand-alone dielectric spectrometry measurements
Combined methods for more sample information with the dielectric spectrometer
- Mechanical and dielectric spectroscopy for deeper insight into sample behavior
- Detection and monitoring of structural changes in curing materials or temperature-related phase transitions
- Microstructure analysis of complex materials such as battery slurries, EV lubrication fluids and adhesives, polymers, bio-materials, cosmetics, and food
Modular MCR rheometers for any challenge
- Dielectric spectrometer for use at temperatures between -160 °C and +600 °C
- Several contact options depending on temperature range and application:
- Spring contact for rotational tests
- Wire-shaft contact for oscillatory tests
- Electrolyte contact in the range from -50 °C to +100 °C for oscillatory and rotational tests
- Mountable for use with a convection temperature device (CTD)
- Measurement in single-drive and TwinDrive mode
- Combinable with various LCR meters and impedance analyzers, depending on the application and required frequency range
- Digital Eye Camera in the CTD for taking pictures and recording videos of the sample (optional)
Features that simplify your measurements
- Flexible test programming in rotation and oscillation mode with the RheoCompass software
- RheoCompass software for automatic data transfer with selected LCR meters, calibration, measurement synchronization, and analysis, along with the display of rheological and dielectric spectrometry data (including master curve generation)
- Toolmaster for automatic recognition and configuration of all connected devices and measuring geometries
