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
NRS Carl Klason and Young Rheologist Awards 2025
Both NRS Awards were handed over at the joint Nordic Rheology Conference and DRG Symposium 2025.

The Carl Klason Rheology Award was given to Prof. Mats Stading from RISE and Chalmers University of Technology in Gothenburg, Sweden. His award lecture was entitled From Fluid to Solid Research and contained a thorough overview of Mats' outstanding work he performed throughout his career.

The NRS Young Rheologist Award was given to Julie Frost Dahl, who conducted her PhD research Measure, Understand, and Predict Structure Formation in Plant-Based Anisotropic Foods at Aarhus University in Denmark.

Mats and Julie were both present at the conference to receive their awards. Congratulations to both of you!
