RST-SST Touch™ Rheometer by AMETEK Brookfield

The RST-SST is the quickest and most comprehensive capability for making rheological measurements, whether it’s single point viscosity for QC or complete flow curve analysis for R&D.

The RST-SST Rheometer is unique because it operates in both controlled shear stress and controlled shear rate modes and can perform the following tests: viscoelastic modulus, yield stress, viscosity vs. shear rate profile, thixotropy calculation, creep behavior, recovery after flow, and temperature sensitivity. This unit offers the widest torque range available to handle the broadest range of sample materials (500 to 1 million dyne.cm).

This unit provides exceptional versatility with the largest range of shear rates and Din spindle geometries. The sturdy, rugged design of the RST is ideal for use in R&D, working in the QC lab or on the production floor. The RST-SST model comes with the standard option for 21 CFR compliance, including controlled user access and data integrity/security.
