HAAKE™ Rheomix QC Lab Mixers / Internal Mixer

Optimize your material processing with HAAKE™ Rheomix QC Lab Mixers, designed for the HAAKE™ PolyLab QC torque rheometer platform. These systems enable small-scale batch testing of highly viscous materials like polymers, elastomers, additives, and fillers, empowering you to proactively identify and prevent production issues.

Precise Mixing & Rheological Analysis:
HAAKE PolyLab QC mixers perform mixing, kneading, compounding, and plasticizing, providing a comprehensive understanding of your materials. A standard test measures the material's torque response over time at a set shear rate, while the mixing chamber maintains precise temperature control. The resulting "Rheogram" (torque and melt temperature vs. time) creates a unique "fingerprint" for each material or blend. This data, coupled with analysis of melting behavior, energy consumption, and melt viscosity (torque), allows for objective measurement and quantification of additive effects.

Typical Applications:

• Polymer Analysis: Melt behavior, degradation, and viscosity changes.
• Additive Evaluation: Quantify the impact of nanoparticles, fillers, lubricants, accelerators, sulfur, carbon black, and color pigments.
• Elastomer Characterization: Mastication, vulcanization, and carbon black oil absorption.
• PVC Processing: Gelation, plasticizing, and DOP absorption.
• Thermoset Analysis: Flow and curing behavior.
• Rubber Compound Testing: Electrical conductivity measurements.
• High-Performance Plastics: Processability assessment.
• Quality Control: Incoming and outgoing product inspection.
