Malvern:

Kinexus & Bohlin Rotational Rheology

Kinexus is a unique Rheometer designed for tomorrow's

rheology needs across all industries and application areas.

Designed by Malvern from the ground up, the Kinexus

rheology platform is the result of intensive product

development. Kinexus enables you to analyze the rheology

(flow/deformation properties) of your materials from liquids

to solids, from processability to product performance, from

temperature to time dependence and from simple viscosity

to complex viscoelastic parameters.

The Bohlin range of Gemini II rotational Rheometers are still available and fill many special niches and

applications, such as the Gemini HR Nano that offers nano-torque levels and enables users to probe

weak or sensitive material structures, yet retains a continuous torque range to 200mNm.The patented

Rotonetic 2 drive technology brings an unsurpassed range and sensitivity to control torque and speed

across all steady, dynamic and transient modes.

Malvern:

Rosand

Capillary Rheology

Rosand Capillary Rheometers simulate the high shear rate conditions of

plastic processing operations, such as extrusion molding.

In a Rosand system the heated sample is extruded through a die of known

dimensions and the shear pressure drop at set volumetric flow rates is

recorded. The basic output is a viscosity versus shear rate graph, but you

can also do extensional viscosity in twin barrel systems and many special

tests.

The bench top RH2000 that is suitable for most tests is shown at right.

Rosand also supply top of the range floor standing systems in strong H

frames for unsurpassed Rheometer performance in terms of speed

control, accuracy, and dynamic operating range.
