Extensional flows dominate many polymer processes, including blow molding, film blowing, fiber spinning, thermoforming and many others. The rheology of polymeric materials under extensional flows can ...

Plastics are widely used polymeric materials employed in a diverse array of applications and across a wide range of popular consumer products. Polymers used in the production of plastics are typically ...

Rheology is the study of the flow and deformation of materials under applied forces, covering both liquids and solids. It examines how materials respond to stress, strain or flow, revealing ...

The Nature Index 2025 Research Leaders — previously known as Annual Tables — reveal the leading institutions and countries/territories in the natural and health sciences, according to their output in ...

The Thermo Haake Caber 1 extensional rheometer measures elongational properties of fluids such as polymer solutions, suspensions, melts, adhesives, emulsions and other materials. The unit analyzes the ...
