Conical compounder.


The MiniLab micro-rheology compounder is said to incorporate proven conical twin-screw technology with the advantages of a short and very defined dwell time The time cargo remains in a terminal's in-transit storage area while awaiting shipment by clearance transportation. See also storage. . Scaled down to micro-size, the MiniLab is said to be the answer to small or expensive sample requirements. It enables compounding and rheological rhe·ol·o·gy

See shear.



shear stress

A form of stress that subjects an object to which force is applied to skew, tending to cause shear strain.
. The cost-effective testing capabilities of the MiniLab are said to be especially helpful in R&D applications for new polymer development, testing of costly additives and material studies in universities and other institutions. A number of features contribute to easy and economical operation, according to according to
