The Core Rheometer is the first system to combine wide-ranging measurements of viscosity and viscoelasticity with streamlined, walk-up usability. The new RheoGuide user interface enables complete operation directly from the touch screen, with direction, illustrations and validation at every step.
The new TA Instruments | Waters Discovery™ Core Rheometer empowers every user to perform rheological measurements, guiding formulation development, optimizing performance and ensuring product quality. Whether you are new to rheology, upgrading your quality control testing, or expanding capabilities to meet growing demands, the Core Rheometer empowers your lab to discover insights into your materials' behavior needed to advance your goals.
While viscometers report only a single viscosity value within a limited range, the Core Rheometer captures the complete viscosity profile, representing material behavior across all relevant conditions. Complex fluids like suspensions, emulsions, gels, pastes and slurries are non-Newtonian. Their viscosity changes with the applied shear rate and time; it is not a single value. Characterizing the full range of viscosity is critical to understand flow behavior under real-world conditions.
