Rheometer
Picture
Company: Malvern, UK
Model no.: CVO100

Funded by: DRDO and DST, India
Used to study the rheological behavior of the materials. Standard tests such as viscometry, oscillation and creep recovery can be done.

[Currently, this instrument is under maintenance]


Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) 
Picture
Company: PerkinElmer, USA
Model no.: TGA 4000
Funded by: DBT, India
Used to measure the changes in physical and chemical properties of materials as a function of temperature (with constant heating rate), or as a function of time (with constant temperature and/or constant mass loss)


Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC)
Picture
Company: PerkinElmer, USA
Model no.: DSC 6000
Funded by: DBT, India
Used to measure a number of characteristic properties of a sample. Using this technique, it is possible to observe fusion and crystallization events as well as glass transition temperature (Tg). DSC can also be used to study oxidation, as well as other chemical reactions.


Universal Testing Machine (UTM) with climate chamber
Picture
Company: Jinan Testing Equipment IE Corporation
Model no.: WDW-10

Funded by: DST, India
Used to test the tensile strength and compressive strength of materials. The tensile strength and elongation at break of the polymeric samples are tested by the UTM equipped with a 0.5N load cell at a crosshead speed depending upon the type of polymeric sample. The lap shear adhesive strength for the overlapping interfaces of the adherents is measured by the UTM equipped with a 10kN load cell at a crosshead speed of 50 mm/min.

Climate chamber is used for cyclic shape memory tests.
