Capillary Rheometers

Attributes/comments: The most technically advanced laboratory capillary rheometers for the determination of the flow behavior of a wide range of materials. The computer controlled instruments offer testing abilities to measure shear viscosity, extensional viscosity, wall slip, melt fracture and rupture with a variety of dies and accessories. Ergonomic design allows easy access and experimentation.

surfaces. It visually scans the surface, captures high-resolution images, and instantly analyzes the surface for defects. Beacon CS- 24 also provides automated, accurate and repeatable particle grind analysis.

KU-2 Viscometer

Attributes/comments: Brookfield’s KU-2 Kreb Viscometer offers digital direct display of viscosity in Krebs units. Measures paint, coatings and related materials. Conforms to ASTM D-562, D856, D1131. Uses standard 1 pint can. Measures in Krebs Units (KU), Centipoise (cP), and Grams (gm).

CAP 2000+ Viscometer Attributes/comments: The CAP2000+ from Brookfield offers expanded tem-perature/viscosity ranges with variable

Black Pearl Viscometer Attributes/comments: Black Pearl Viscometer is a high performance rotational viscometer capable of both steady shear and yield stress testing in a rugged, compact size footprint. Designed for performing both routine rheological tests like single point viscosity checks for QC, to complex rheological evaluation for R&D, the Black Pearl viscometer is ideal for investigating the mixing, stirring and process flow characteristics of fluid systems.
