Applications of RheolabQC
Measuring the viscosity of building materials like plasters
Plasters are frequently used building materials. Knowledge about the viscosity and flow characteristics is essential in their production, quality control and development.
Conclusions about the processing behavior, pumpability, sprayability, shelf life, flowability as well as the levelling and application characteristics can be retrieved from successful measurements.
However, large particles often prevent or influence rheological tests.
Therefore the RheolabQC offers the ball measuring system consisting of the flexible cup holder, the measuring cup and the ball measuring system available in different sizes.
The external temperature sensor (Pt100) can be used for temperature measurement in the sample.
The Anton Paar Quality Control Rheometer RheolabQC
RheolabQC is a rotational rheometer designed especially for the quality control, featuring a high precision encoder and a highly dynamic EC motor.
- You can choose between operating the rheometer manually or using the RheoplusTM software, which can be directly connected to a network.
- RheolabQC can be operated with a huge variety of accessories. The automatic component recognition ToolmasterTM ensures error-free selection of the measuring geometries.
- The ball measuring system consists of a cup showing an inner diameter of approximately 115 mm for a sample volume of approximately 500 ml.
For the measuring bob three ball measuring geometries are available:
- BM08/Q1 (ball diameter d = 8 mm)
- BM12/Q1 (ball diameter d = 12 mm)
- BM15/Q1 (ball diameter d = 15 mm)
