Plastometer for the determination of intrinsic viscosity (IV) certified according
- ASTM D1238
- ISO 1133
- ISO 12418-2:2012
Melt flow indexer IV Tester
With the IV Tester you have the possibility to determine the intrinsic viscosity, also called solvent viscosity or intrinsic viscosity. No chemical solvents are used in the determination. This method is used in particular for the quality control of polyester (PET) or polyamide (PA). The tester does not require a PC.
Good to know
In comparison to conventional methods, which require time-consuming sample preparation, the IV Tester enables rapid and solvent-free determination of viscosity. This not only reduces the analysis effort, but also ensures reproducible and standard-compliant measurement results that can be used directly in quality control.

CUSTOMIZED TO YOUR REQUIREMENTS
Our modular add-ons also offer an extended option for characterizing materials.
The residual moisture has a considerable influence on the measurement result for certain test materials. Therefore, it is recommended to dry test materials before a IV measurement and to determine the residual moisture.
Our miCONNECT software is a browser-based platform for workstation-independent management and analysis of measurement data, which can be used without installation.
