A self-contained, rotational Rheometer, capable of performing routine rheological tests from quick single point checks to complete viscosity flow profiles and yield stress determinations without the need for complicated test method setup. The MERLIN VR is well suited for investigating the mixing, stirring, and pumping behavior of coatings, emulsions, and dispersions, as well as for performing conventional flow and viscosity profile experiments. The innovative design incorporates a Thermoelectric temperature control system that allows isothermal, step, and / or ramp temperature profiles. The DIN standard sample measuring systems of cone and plate, parallel plate, and bob and cup, coupled with a wide shear rate and torque range, provide a measurable viscosity range from 1 to 1E08 cP.

From single-point measurements to flow curves to yield stress determinations to complex rheological protocols.

Automated program control using the "test definition" window to rapidly create multiple step tests.

Mathematical data processing models Include: Ostwald (Power), Bingham, Herschel Bulkley, Ellis, Casson, Morre & Others.
