Streamlining Dilatometry for Material Development, Quality Control and Failure Analysis
Unparalleled Ease-of-use
Change out furnaces, pushrods, thermocouples and tubes in a matter of seconds.
Pushrod dilatometry is a method for characterizing dimensional changes of a material as a function of temperature. The measurement may be performed across a temperature range (e.g. from 800° to 1,600°C), or a specific controlled temperature program to mimic industrial processes, firing regimes, or a material’s operating environment. The coefficient of thermal expansion (α) is defined as the degree of expansion (ΔL) divided by the change in temperature (ΔT).
A precise understanding of thermal expansion behaviour provides crucial insight into firing processes, the influence of additives, reaction kinetics and other important aspects of how materials respond to environmental changes. Typical applications include: the determination of the coefficient of thermal expansion, annealing studies, determination of glass transition point, softening point, densification, kinetics and sintering studies.
C-Therm dilatometers offer high resolution and stability across a broad measurement range. With unparalleled ease-of-use, high adaptability, and modular design, C-Therm dilatometers offer researchers a robust cost-effective solution to their characterization needs.
Conforms to all major standard test methods for dilatometry, including ASTM E228.
