Malvern Development Scientist Presents Validation Technique at European Rheology Conference


6 April 2010: Malvern, UK: Joanne Langridge, Rheology Development Scientist at Malvern Instruments will present a poster describing the 'Validation of the Linear Viscoelastic Region of a Silicone Polymer and a Worm-like Micellar solution using Normal Force to Determine the Onset of Non-linearity' at the 6th Annual European Rheology Conference (AERC 2010) taking place from 7 - 9 April 2010 in Göteborg, Sweden.

Malvern Instruments is also exhibiting the Kinexus rheometer. This unique system is designed to meet rheology needs across a wide variety of research sectors, industries and application areas, for users at every level of experience. It enables precise analysis of the rheology of materials: from liquids to soft solids, processability to product performance, temperature to time dependence. A true applications-led interface brings 'expert system' guidance and SOP-driven processes to rheological measurement, while intelligent software invites users to work at the level most appropriate to them - to solve a problem with an application-led approach, experiment using established methodologies, or design tests from scratch.

About Malvern Instruments

Malvern Instruments provides a range of complementary materials characterization tools that deliver inter-related measurements reflecting the complexities of particulates and disperse systems, nanomaterials and macromolecules. Analytical instruments from Malvern are used in the characterization of a wide variety of materials, from industrial bulk powders to nanomaterials and delicate macromolecules. A broad portfolio of innovative technologies is combined with intelligent, user-friendly software. These systems deliver industrially relevant data enabling our customers to make the connection between micro (such as particle size) and macro (bulk) material properties (rheology) and chemical composition (chemical imaging).

Particle size, particle shape, zeta potential, molecular weight, chemical composition and rheological properties measurements are now joined by advanced chromatography solutions (GPC/SEC), extending Malvern's technologies for protein molecular weight, size and aggregation measurements, and synthetic polymer molecular weight and distribution. The company's laboratory, at-line, on-line and in-line solutions are proven in sectors as diverse as cement production and pharmaceutical drug discovery.

Headquartered in Malvern, UK, Malvern Instruments has subsidiary organizations in all major European markets, North America, China, Korea and Japan, a joint venture in India, a global distributor network and applications laboratories around the world. www.malvern.com
