TESTING AND ANALYSES OF POLYMERS

Elastomers, thermoplastics, thermosets

• Identification and determination of chemical structure
• Quantitative determination of structural units in some rubbers (SBR, BR, EPDM, NBR, CR, ACM)
• Quantitative determination of total organic additives
• Quantitative determination of total inorganic additives
• Qualitative determination of non-polymeric components
• Determination of molecular weight distribution and averages
• Determination of phase transition energies and temperatures (melting points and melting enthalpies) Determination glass transition temperature
• Monitoring of thermal changes (melting, thermal degradation, reactions, heat capacities)
  
  

Textile materials

• Identification of type and determination of textile fibre chemical composition
• Determination of type and amount of dip pickup
• Monitoring of textile thermal changes (melting, crystalization, other phase transitions)
