Determination of the density of rubber compounds
The Elatest® determines the density of polymers, in particular of rubber and unvulcanized rubber compounds - a dimension which is of decisive importance for rubber processing, both during recipe development and for continuous production control.
The sample material is compressed within the measuring cylinder. Any gas contained in the sample escapes during this compression process. Under a preset pressure, the moving piston reaches a position which is specific for each individual sample, i.e. the sample is compressed to its specific volume. The stroke of the piston is measured by a displacement transducer and transmitted to the computer.
From the sample weight and volume, the computer automatically calculates the density. Use the software easily with the touch screen. Excellent reproducibility of the measured values, the ease of handling, and the reliability make the Elatest® best suited for production control as well as for research and development.
