Particle measurement aids paint performance
Instrument performs zeta potential and particle size measurement in developing the use of nanosized ceramic particles to enhance scratch resistance for automotive lacquers.
The first of the web seminars was given by Dr Lynn Walker, Professor of Chemical Engineering at Carnegie Mellon University, and covered 'Shear alignment of nanoparticle arrays templated by block-copolymer mesophases'.
This is now available on the Malvern website as a downloadable presentation that can be viewed anytime.
Excellent presentations to date have also included Dr Susan Muller, Professor of Chemical Engineering at the University of California, Berkley on the subject of 'Instabilities in viscoelastic flows'.
Among the list of future speakers will be Dr Martin Sentmanat of Xpansion Instruments on 'Making extensional viscosity measurements of polymer systems'.
While Malvern is the manufacturer of Bohlin rheometers, the Rheology Forum is intended to be non-commercial.
Participants are welcomed from every area.
Potential speakers from all backgrounds and using any equipment are invited to submit an abstract for consideration.
Presenters simply deliver the seminar across the internet from their own PC.
Malvern's objective is to increase awareness of rheology and its applications, and to afford people working in new or expanding fields the opportunity to gain more exposure and recognition in a global arena. Request a free brochure from Malvern Instruments ...
