Structural Insights into Thermally Expandable Alumina Microspheres via True Density Measurement
Abstract: This study investigates the true density and expansion behavior of thermally expandable alumina microspheresin relation to their applications in lightweight composites, high-temperature insulation, and functional fillers. Using the gasdisplacement method, the hollow structure of the materi...
Open Cell Content Determination of Cellular Plastics by Gas Displacement Method
Measuring open-cell content is crucial for selecting suitable foam. This note describes using the BetterPyc 380, an ASTM D6226-compliant gas pycnometer, to obtain accurate and reliable results. The automated process saves time, aiding in selecting foam based on specific requirements.

Assessing PET Grade Through Molecular Weight Analysis Using the BeSEC
Abstract: Polyethylene terephthalate (PET) grades are primarily defined by molecular weight, which directly influences mechanical performance and processing behavior. In this study, size-exclusion chromatography coupled with static light scattering and refractive index detection was applied to deter...
