Rubber Plasticity Testing Equipment
Rubber Plasticity Testing Equipment features a selection of specialized apparatuses specifically designed for testing the plasticity and flow properties of rubber materials. This category features advanced equipment such as the Mooney Viscometer and Williams Parallel-plate Plastometer, which are essential instruments for evaluating the rheological properties of rubber compounds. The Mooney Viscometer measures the viscosity and scorch characteristics of rubber materials under controlled shear and temperature conditions, providing crucial data for process optimization and quality control. Similarly, the Williams Parallel-plate Plastometer is used to determine the flow properties and processability of rubber compounds, offering valuable insights into material behavior during processing. These precise testing instruments are indispensable for industries involved in rubber product manufacturing, research, and development.
Rubber Plasticity Testing Equipment Series
Mooney Shearing Disk Viscometer
The Mooney Viscometer is used to determine the Mooney viscosity, Mooney stress relaxation and pre-vulcanization characteristics of uncompounded or compounded rubbers.
Our Mooney Viscometers are technologically mature with high reliability, repeatability and reproducibility and are well recognized by our customers.
Parallel Plate Plastimeter
Parallel Plate Plastimeter is an instrument used for the determination of plasticity and recovery of raw rubber and unvulcanized compounded rubber.
The plasticity value and the recovery value are related to the viscoelasticity of the rubber material. The plasticity value is related to the fluidity, and the recovery value is related to the elasticity. These properties are very important in determining the processing properties of rubber.
