NETZSCH - 2009 Applications Seminar Series for Polymers in Industry & Development

Seminar Goals

Modern thermo-analytical methods are an excellent tool for answering questions such as these in product development, quality control and assurance, failure analysis and research of new products. These methods are even more powerful when coupled to other techniques. The goal of the seminar is to demonstrate the capabilities of these methods with real life applications from the fields of thermoplastics, thermosets, rubbers, etc.
