Advanced rheological characterization for highly sensitive biobased materials

Speaker

Abstract

Measuring the shear rheology for highly temperature sensitive materials is challenging. Material characterization tools are slow compared to industrial processing. Using numerical simulations will help to illustrate the challenges for both the industrial processing and the material characterization.  Three measuring techniques to obtain shear viscosity will be compared and discussed based on recent developments within a research project performed within KU Leuven.
