Anisothermal stress relaxation test for characterization of elastomers and determination of crosslinking density.
Your advantages
• Patented test method – developed at the Osnabrück University of Applied Sciences under the direction of Prof. Dr. Vennemann
• Software – Measurement and evaluation software with automatic test execution, live data display in real time and automatic evaluation and storage
• Speed – Low test and time requirements (4h TSSR vs. 72h DVR)
• Temperature limits – Define three distinct temperature limits in the relaxation spectrum – additional temperatures possible
The TSSR-Meter can be used to perform conventional isothermal relaxation measurements as well as Temperature Scanning Stress Relaxation (TSSR), an anisothermal stress relaxation measurement method (AISR method).
• Very good reproducibility
• Fast determination of the cross-linking density
• Information about relaxation behavior and structure
With the ever-increasing demands on materials, the determination of crosslinking density is an important advantage, and therefore the TSSR meter is particularly suitable for material development and quality control during production.
The TSSR meter is used in many areas where mechanical-thermal properties are to be measured and verified.
• The determination of the cross-linking density offers advantages in the development of new materials and quality assurance.
• The compression set value can be predicted from the limit temperature using a linear correlation.
• Better delimitation of application areas of TPE compared to carbon black filled elastomers
