The Texture Analyser TA.XT plusC is an analytical instrument used to measure the mechanical and physical properties of various materials, often food products, cosmetics, foams and gels. It measures how hard, tough, soft, or sticky a material is. A \u201cprobe\u201d \u2013 a type of plunger \u2013 is pressed against the sample and measures the force required to deform it, as a function of time. The results provide insight into the texture of the material.
The instrument can be adapted to different materials by using various probes and fixtures.<\/p>\n

The Zetasizer Ultra measures the size of small particles in a liquid by analyzing how they scatter light. The Charge can also be measured. It provides insights into particle stability and whether they tend to aggregate. The instrument features precise temperature control and can automatically test how particles behave at different pH levels.<\/p>\n

The spray dryer efficiently and gently transforms a liquid (solution or suspension) into a dry powder.<\/p>\n
The process works by atomizing the liquid into fine droplets, which are then rapidly dried in a stream of hot air. The result is a uniform, stable powder that is easier to store, transport, and use in further research or production. The effect of the drying process on the quality of the product can be studied.<\/p>\n

The DMA 303 Eplexor tests how materials \u2013 such as composites, rubber, and fiber-based materials \u2013 respond to bending, stretching, or compression. It measures stiffness, softness, and damping capacity, and how these properties change with temperature and humidity.<\/p>\n
The instrument can heat samples up to 800\u202f\u00b0C and perform tests under varying humidity levels. It is commonly used to determine the glass transition temperature and to study how a material gradually deforms or loses tension when exposed to prolonged stress.<\/p>\n
