Rheometers
  • Anton Paar MCR 301
  • Göttfert Rheograph 6000 capillary rheometer
Accessories
  • Magneto-Rheological Device (MRD): used to analyze the influence of a magnetic field on the viscoelastic properties of magnetorheological fluids (MRF) and ferrofluids
  • SER fixture for extensional rheology: provides information about molecular structure, branching, temperature stability, shrinkage, relaxations, and brittleness as well as the adhesion and peel strength of films and fibers
  • Pressure chamber for the capillary rheometer: can be used to simulate different pressure drops, thereby measuring the viscosity close to process conditions

  HIGHLIGHTS

Call for Nominations - NRS Rheology Awards 2026
The Nordic Rheology Society invites nominations for the NRS Rheology Awards 2026, which will be announced at the 35th Nordic Rheology Conference in Lund, Sweden.
  • The Carl Klason Rheology Award is given to a senior researcher, who has made outstanding contributions to rheology and is or was active in the Nordic countries
  • The Young Rheologist Award is given to an early-career researcher, who has conducted outstanding work on the graduate and postgraduate level at a research institution in the Nordic countries

  • A letter describing the nominee and the motivation for the nomination may be submitted by all members of the Nordic Rheology Society to the NRS President Olli-Ville Laukkanen or to nrs@nordicrheologysociety.org. The awardees will be selected by the NRS Award Committee, consisting of Annika Sahlström, Kurt Ingar Draget, Ole Hassager and Jón Elvar Wallevik.

    The deadline for nominations is 15 January 2026.

    If you have suitable nominees in mind, we encourage you to submit a nomination.

    In 2025, the awards were given to Prof. Mats Stading (RISE) and Julie Frost Dahl (Aarhus University).
