	Our research seeks to advance the understanding and control of polymeric materials under flow through the use and development of advanced measurement technology. The motivation behind our effort is two-fold. At a basic level, if one can conduct fundamental measurements of important phenomenon that occur during flow or processing, then one can achieve a deeper understanding of how to control the flow and the properties of the final product. At an applied level, polymer processors suffer from limited real-time information on critical properties of polymeric materials in processing operations. The ability to measure processing parameters would enable real time control, leading to higher product quality and reduced waste.

	The T2SR is a versatile, portable, and robust instrument designed to study the properties of reactive polymer systems, such as epoxy resins, rubbers, cements, adhesives, powder coatings and gels. In addition, the T2SR provides valuable QC rheology data for manufacturers of viscous pastes, creams, lotions, and foodstuffs. The T2SR comes complete with easy-to-use software, and has no special power or air requirements. Disposable probes are ideal for following curing reasons and a selection of environmental control options allows the T2SR to simulate a variety of process conditions. The instrument is unique in that it is affordable and portable. For more information, contact Fluid Dynamics, Inc.
