 Q400 and Q400EM analyzers are said to provide mechanical property measurements on a broad variety of materials from -150 to 1,000[degrees]C. The Q400 is said to be a rugged, easy-to-use analyzer analyzer /ana·ly·zer/ (an´ah-li?zer)
1. a Nicol prism attached to a polarizing apparatus which extinguishes the ray of light polarized by the polarizer.

 that provides state-of-the-art performance in research or quality control applications involving dimension change measurements as a function of temperature, time or force. The Q400EM is a research-grade TMA. It is said to offer advanced operation modes, such as stress and strain ramps, creep, stress relaxation Stress relaxation describes how polymers relieve stress under constant strain. Because they are viscoelastic, polymers behave in a nonlinear, non-Hookean fashion.[1] , dynamic TMA and modulated mod·u·late
