On demand: Basics of Oscillatory Rheometry: The Amplitude Sweep

The amplitude sweep is one of the basic experiments in oscillatory rheometry. It is used to determine the linear viscoelastic range of the respective sample in order to be able to carry out further oscillatory measurements without affecting the structure at rest. The webinar gives an overview of the parameterization and interpretation of amplitude sweeps, in particular to determine the optimal stress and strain amplitude. In the context of the interpretation of amplitude sweeps, the cohesion energy is discussed, which is of great importance for many practical applications.
