Suppliers Showcase: Instruments.Brittleness tester The Model DCS-153 brittleness tester determines the temperature at which elastomers and plastics experience brittle failure due to low temperature impact. Many applications now require elastomers and plastics capable of flexing at low temperatures, according to the company. The brittleness tester will determine the effects low temperature may have on a material, such as crystallization Crystallization The formation of a solid from a solution, melt, vapor, or a different solid phase. Crystallization from solution is an important industrial operation because of the large number of materials marketed as crystalline particles. and incompatibility of plasticizers. The DCS-153 can be used to predict a material's performance in its end use environment.

An INTERLINK command on CERNVM. 51-016 and others. Dynamic menu driven software Version 4.0 provides for sample test set up, data analysis and storage for as many as 63 tests and their operating parameters. Auto-matic calculation of flow rate, shear rate, shear stress and viscosity are displayed on the MFI2 dual line LCD operating display. A 29-key alphanumeric keyboard provides a full word processing style editor, eliminating time consuming scrolling in test set up, according to the company. The flexible design of the MFI2 allows up to 32 units to be linked to any PC compatible computer, an aid to ISO 9000 quality documentation requirements, or sends reports directly to a printer without using a PC, according to the manufacturer. The MFI2 features precise four heater zone set point temperature control. (Atlas Electric Devices) Circle 111 on card |
