Characteristics for processability and flow behavior
Rheological tests
Plastics exhibit viscoelastic behavior. This means that they exhibit neither properties of an ideal-elastic solid nor of an ideal-viscous liquid. The KUZ test laboratory has various rheological testing and investigation methods at its disposal, which are used, on the one hand, to characterize the flow behavior in the shear rate range relevant to processing and, on the other hand, to investigate the quiescent structure of the polymer at very small deformations or deformation rates.
