Mooney Viscometer - MV One
Manufacturer: TA Instruments – a division of Waters Corporation
Description
The MV One is a digital Mooney viscometer used primarily for testing raw or compounded rubber and elastomers. It performs standard measurements of Mooney viscosity, Mooney scorch time, and stress relaxation, which are essential for evaluating processability and cure characteristics. Tests are conducted under isothermal conditions, with a standard rotational speed of 2 rpm and an optional variable speed range from 0.1 to 10 rpm. The instrument has a torque measurement range of 0.01 to 200 Mooney units (MU) and can control chamber temperature from ambient levels up to 200°C. It utilizes low-mass rotors and is built on a rigid frame with a direct drive motor to ensure precision and compliance with international standards such as ASTM, ISO, and DIN. Operation and data analysis are managed through dedicated software, which controls the instrument and processes test results. This system is configured for quality control and research applications within the rubber manufacturing industry.
