Mettler Toledo Introduces Mechanical Analyzer
The Excellence Dynamic Mechanical Analyzer DMA 1, introduced by Mettler Toledo offers six different deformation modes to gauge materials performance.
The Excellence Dynamic Mechanical Analyzer DMA 1, introduced by Mettler Toledo at Pittcon 2013, offers six different deformation modes to gauge materials performance. The instrument can handle multiple dynamic and static measurements to characterize viscoelasticity, glass transition, softening, crystallization, and phase transformation, according to the press announcement.
Users can set the sample arm and analysis head at multiple angles based on sample nature and geometry. Rapid cooling to as low as -190 ºC with minimal liquid nitrogen consumption also helps improve sample throughput, reduce costs, and improve operator safety.
The linear variable differential transformer (LVDT) measures changes in length over a measurement range of ±1 mm with a mean resolution of 2 nm. The DMA 1 also offers the ability to operate in liquids or at specific relative humidity levels.
The Solution Lies with SOLBIOTE™: Achieving Sustainability, a Growing Focus in Biopharma
October 28th 2024The nexus between biopharmaceuticals and sustainability is seemingly far apart, however, it is increasingly recognized as an inevitable challenge. It is encouraged to take a sustainable approach to reducing the environmental impact of the production and supply of medicines while improving people's health; delivering the well-being of people and the planet. Yosuke Shimojo (Technical Value Support Section Manager, Nagase Viita) will unveil how SOLBIOTE™, a portfolio of injectable-grade saccharide excipients, would be a key for the biopharmaceutical development and achieving sustainability for a better future of the industry.
