Quenching dilatometers are used to study phase transformations and microstructural changes in steel and metal alloys. Phase transformations occur upon heating and cooling during manufacturing of metal parts and are generated in a controlled way during heat treatment. Changes in microstructure and phase transformations cause changes of volume and expansion rate. Dilatometry is the ideal method to identify the extent and the temperatures of these solid-state phase transitions in metals. Quenching dilatometry helps to optimize heat treatment of metals to yield the required physical properties of the finished product. The heat treatment temperature profile results in different microstructures, which impacts key properties such as hardness yield strength.

Dynamic Mechanical Analysis measures the mechanical properties of materials as a function of time, temperature, and frequency. In addition to quantifying viscoelastic properties of materials, DMA can also quantify finished component and product characteristics, reflecting the important contribution that processing has on end-use product performance.

Thermogravimetric analyzers (TGA) measure weight change (loss or gain) and the rate of weight change as a function of temperature, time, and atmosphere. Thermogravimetric data is critical to setting proper temperature limits for Differential Scanning Calorimetry method development. Other common usages include thermal and oxidative stability of materials, moisture and volatile contents, composition of multi-component materials, decomposition kinetics and estimated lifetime of a product, and effects of reactive or corrosive atmospheres.

Chromatography Systems – Choose The Right Solution for Your Analysis

Data is paramount in scientific research as evidence-based questions escalate. Answers require accurate measurements for precise results to obtain the data to make informed decisions.

Scientists across many industries rely on Waters LC and LC-MS platforms to identify and understand chemical components that help answer their important questions: Is the product safe? Can the disease be understood? Can I meet my regulatory requirements?

With Waters as your measurement partner, you’re sure to get the tailored solution you need to achieve your workflow and analysis requirements. Find out more about our Dependability, Flexibility, Performance, Specialty, and Purification LC solutions that are purpose-built for your priorities.

Waters offers a wide array of column choices and formats, including but not limited to HPLC, UPLC, UHPLC, GPC, SFC, and SEC.  Select the ideal column for your application, and simplify your methods development, validation, and transfer throughout your organization.

Our fully scalable particle technologies ensure that our LC columns perform with a broad range of chromatographic instrumentation. Depending on the goals of a separation, the instrument platform used, or the sample type, you can choose the most suitable column that is matched to your system’s configuration without adversely affecting the chromatographic result.

Our quality mission is to ensure that the Waters’ Columns you use today are the most reproducible and reliable LC columns available. As a primary manufacturer of silica and hybrid particles, scientists can be assured of consistent column performance, batch-to-batch reproducibility, and product availability over the life of the analytical method.

A leading producer of analytical instruments and chemical consumables, Waters understands both the demanding chemical requirements due to sensitive detection limits of the instruments you use and the dependable results you require. Sources of contamination in your workflow take valuable time to track down. Waters Certified Containers are uniquely processed, treated, and certified in the same unique manner as our highly regarded low TOC vials. Ultra-clean containers can be used on any LC system, including UPLC®, LC/UV, and LC/MS, among others. Manufactured to stringent standards, they prevent extraneous peaks and baseline noise stemming from high TOC. To help assist with contamination prevention and facilitate recommended care and use, each container carries the Waters certified mark for easy differentiation in operational use. You’ll save time and energy knowing that random variables stemming from potentially contaminated reservoir containers have been greatly reduced and your results are solid.
