Rheology meets Raman spectroscopy
The Rheometer-Raman Setup (a rheometer connected with a Raman spectrometer) combines two powerful measurement principles: It is the perfect symbiosis of rheology as a mechanical and Raman as a molecular spectroscopy method. The relationship between the macromolecular behavior measured with the rheometer and structural parameters is important for a better understanding of changes in the chemical functionality and microstructure of various materials and their influence on processing and applications.
