Effective use of DMA to optimize your polymer formulations - by Dr. Mark DeMEUSE

Dynamic Mechanical Analysis, or DMA, is seeing an increasing popularity among people that are interested in the characterization of polymers. Due to its very high level of sensitivity it can be used to detect transitions and events that are not easily observed with other polymer characterization techniques. As such, it can be effectively utilized to assist in the definition of the performance of new and existing polymer formulations. Further, it can be used as a quick and efficient way to screen new formulations for unique and developing applications.

DMA is presently being used to characterize all types of polymers including both thermosets and thermoplastics, as well as mixtures of these with themselves and each other. Correlations of the DMA data with more typical physical properties such as HDT and mechanical properties can be established and this allows for the easy evaluation of different polymer materials in different applications. DMA testing that can be performed under real end-use conditions helps allow for the establishment of performance criteria that is directly related to the DMA results. Due to this fact, DMA is finding increased applications in many new fields of polymer science. DMA is a very effective tool for quickly screening new polymer formulations for new and unique uses and applications.  As such, it can be utilized to eliminate much trial and error work from such evaluations and can be used to focus development efforts on the correct formulation in a timely and efficient manner.  Due to this fact, its use can reduce the time involved with new formulation developments as well as the associated costs of such developments.

Live online training on Wed. 25 Oct 2017 - Using DMA to Optimize Present & Future Polymer Formulations

Do you know Smart Use of DMA can significantly reduce TIME and COST involved in your polymer formulations?

DMA is a very effective tool for quickly screening new polymer formulations for new and unique uses and applications.  As such, it can be utilized to eliminate much trial and error work from such evaluations and can be used to focus development efforts on the correct formulation in a timely and efficient manner.  Due to this fact, its use can reduce the time involved with new formulation developments as well as the associated costs of such developments.

People that attend the training will be shown techniques to use their DMA data to optimize their formulations and how the DMA data can be related to the performance of their formulations in a specific and well-defined application. As such, they will be shown how the various DMA parameters that can be measured are related to more traditional mechanical properties of the polymers.  Also, new developments in DMA technology will be provided to show the participants the new advances in the characterization technology.
