Abstract:For decades, measurement of the Mooney viscosity has been used for testing the viscosity of raw polymers and mixed stocks. The Mooney viscometer is commonly used on the shop floor alongside the rheometer. The relevance of the Mooney test for the processing of rubber compounds is limited and the use of a rubber process analyser (RPA) is a suitable alternative. The instrument is robust, easy to handle and therefore perfectly suitable for day-to-day use on the shop floor. High accuracy and repeatability of the me… Show more
