Rheology: viscosity and flow behaviour

In Alfatestlab we are experts in rheological characterization. We can support you to study the viscosity and viscoelastic properties of a wide range of fluids, semi-solid materials and dispersions: gels and hydrogels, body creams, toothpastes, oils, paints, inks, polymeric dispersions, bitumen, plastic materials, mayonnaises, jams, honey, etc.

Nanosystems characterization

In Alfatestlab we are experts in nano-systems characterization. Particle size, particle concentration and charge are of fundamental importance to assess nano-systems suitability for the intended application.

Powder rheology

Alfatestlab provides a complete characterization of powder behaviour thanks to the use of the unique FT4 Powder Rheometer®. The characteristics of a powder are of fundamental importance in the good performances of innumerable industrial processes and in the performance of many products.

Thermal Analysis

Material characterization throught thermal analysis techniques: DSC (Differential Scanning Calorimetry) and STA (simultaneous thermal analysis, also known as TG-DTA or TG-DSC) instruments are available to perform studies upon a wide variety of materials.
