Dma q800 equipment

Manufactured by TA Instruments
Sourced in United States

The DMA Q800 is a dynamic mechanical analyzer that measures the mechanical properties of materials. It provides data on a material's stiffness, damping, and glass transition temperature. The equipment is capable of performing various tests, including tension, compression, and shear, on a wide range of sample types.

Viscoelastic Properties of PPW Composites

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The viscoelastic properties, such as storage modulus (E′), loss modulus (E″), loss factor (tan δ), and stiffness of PPW composites as a function of temperature were determined using a DMA Q800 equipment (TA Instruments Inc., New Castle, DE, USA), which operated with dual cantilever bending. Data processing was performed with Universal Analysis 2000 software (Version 4.5 Build 4.5.0.5, New Castle, DE, USA). Rectangular specimens having a width of 10.56 mm, a thickness of 4 mm, and a length of 60 mm were examined according to the testing program conducted, from ambient temperature to 150 °C, with a constant heating scan of 3 °C min−1, a frequency of 1 Hz, and amplitude of 15 µm.

Characterizing Materials and Organs with DMA

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Dynamic Mechanical Analysis (DMA) applies an oscillating force to a sample and analyzes the response of the material to that force [34] . DMA calculates not only the complex modulus (E*), the storage modulus (E') and the loss modulus (E''), but also the dynamic viscosity (ŋ*) and the stiffness (K*) as well as the stress-strain curves. Additionally, the complex modulus is obtained by relating the storage modulus with the loss modulus (see Equation 1): 1)
Both organs and materials were tested using a DMA Q800 equipment of TA Instruments at 37ºC, 1 Hz and a pre-load force of 0.001 N (Figure 1). Additionally, strain amplitudes covered a range between 10 µm to 100 µm. The samples were kept in the linear elastic regime, and hence, the stressstrain relationship is linear [35] .
Additionally, the Young's Modulus (E) was determined from the stress-strain curves obtained with the DMA by the compression tests using the following equation (see Equation 2): 2)

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
