"CURIOUS RHEOLOGY" CYCLE EPISODE 4 - Interpreting curves (produced in conventional and advanced rheometry) As we discussed in episode 3, the possibilities offered by a rheometer are multiple for quantifying concrete behaviors of materials and industrial products. However, such possibilities have a counterpart: to become representative and predictive, measurements,...

Fiber
Fibers: understanding, measuring and controlling complex materials Fibers, whether plant-based (flax, hemp, cotton, jute, etc.), animal-based (wool, silk), mineral-based (glass, carbon) or synthetic (polyester, polyamide), play a key role in the structure and performance of materials and formulations. They provide mechanical strength, elasticity, absorption, texturizing and even specific functionalities to the final products....InSubjects
Compact – Tablet | Measurement – R&D – Formulation – Industrialization
Compacts and Tablets: Measure, Understand, and Optimize Compacts and tablets are essential solid forms in many industrial sectors. Their performance depends on the quality of the powders, the compaction processes, and the mechanical stability of the finished products. Whether in pharmaceuticals (medicinal tablets), cosmetics (compacted powders), or the food industry,...

microcapsule
Microcapsule / Microsphere Microcapsules and microspheres present various interests for industries, encapsulation often being intended to solubilize, protect, transport assets or molecules of particular interest. Often made up of hydrocolloids (alginate, xanthan, etc.), microcapsules, their formulation, their manufacture and their application raise different questions of physical behavior. The sensitivity of microcapsules and microspheres Different processes...InSubjects
Complex fluid
Complex fluid Complex fluid is often called liquids containing macromolecules or colloidal or more complex structures (low-concentrate polymer solutions, biological liquids, micellar water, micro-algae solutions, etc.). Unlike conventional liquids, these fluids, due to the presence of macromolecules, organelles or others, generally exhibit singular behaviors influencing...InSubjects
Resin
Resin Resins are one of the most common industrial substances, used as the main constituent of parts shaped by various thermomechanical processes (extrusion, molding, injection, etc.), as an interface or filler product or as a matrix for composites. . Whether thermoplastic or thermosetting, synthetic or biosourced, recyclable or not, the formulation, industrialization and application of...InSubjects
Semi-solid and solid foam
Semi-solid & solid foam Semi-solid (or semi-rigid) and solid foams are a commonly sought-after state in many industrial sectors, from the food industry to construction and the automotive industry. Food-grade foams are good examples of semi-solid foams; bread, sponges or synthetic foams (polyurethane, polypropylene,...) good examples of solid foams....

Wax-based products
Wax-based products: understanding, mastering, innovating Waxes are materials with complex behaviors, at the crossroads of solids and fluids, widely used in the cosmetics, pharmaceutical, food, packaging, and materials chemistry sectors. Mastering them is a challenge: sensitive thermal properties, multiple phase transitions, interactions with other ingredients, processability, etc.InSubjects
Powder
Powders Ingredients for manufacturers of consumer products (cosmetics, agri-food, pharmaceuticals, etc.), finished products for the extractive and primary processing industries, powders constitute one of the main physical states of industrial materials. Although widely used in all sectors, the behavior of powders still poses many operational difficulties, from R&D to application,...InSubjects
Gel & Gelling agent
Gels & Gelling agents Gelled products are common in many industries (agri-food, cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, but also in specialty industrial sectors such as lubricants and greases). Gelling agents, such as xanthan, alginate, guar, pectin, carob, are sometimes also used as simple thickeners or viscosifiers. Control the sensitivity of gels La...InSubjects
