Mettler DMA Dynamic Thermomechanical Analysis

• DMA is an important method for testing the mechanical and viscoelastic properties of materials, such as thermoplastic materials, thermosetting resins, elastomers, ceramics, and metal materials.
• In DMA, one of the different deformation modes (bending, stretching, shearing, and compression) is used to periodically apply stress to the sample.
• Measure the modulus as a function of time or temperature and provide phase transition information.
• In addition, DMA technology has a wide range of applications and can even characterize materials in liquids or under specific relative humidity conditions.

Wide frequency range

The DMA instrument extends the frequency range to the kHz region for the first time. In cutting mode, it can be used for sixty years. The area above 1 Hz is particularly noteworthy because it means that the measurement time can be kept at a relatively short level.

Flexible positioning measuring head

The measuring head can be placed in a convenient location for installing the sample holder and clamping the sample. Then, set it to a suitable position for measurement in a specific deformation mode. Automatically detect the direction of the measuring head.

Large touch screen highlights ergonomic design

The touch screen of DMA 1 allows for remote viewing of the instrument's status through the touch screen, which includes two important functions:

• When installing the sample bracket, it can display the current spring displacement situation
• Can also monitor sine excitation function

TMA measurement

In addition to dynamic mode, DMA 1 can also use static force for measurement (TMA mode). All deformation modes available for DMA use.
