It was selected because it offers a fast, easy way to non-destructively test the samples.  The non-destructive nature of the TCi is an important capability as researchers can conduct further testing on the samples characterized.    Dr. Robert Bateman is conducting some research on the thermal conductivity characterization of various geological samples in collaboration with the University of New Brunswick's Geology Department.   2011-03-25T15:11:03+00:00 /blog/testing_the_thermal_conductivity_of_mgo_filled_polyphenylene_sulphide/ /blog/testing_the_thermal_conductivity_of_mgo_filled_polyphenylene_sulphide/ MgO is used to increase the thermal conductivity of PPS for applications in the electronics industry.   Helping keep electronics cool!  2011-03-11T04:03:33+00:00 /blog/testing_the_thermal_conductivity_of_silicone/ /blog/testing_the_thermal_conductivity_of_silicone/ Recent testing results on a silicone standard. 2011-03-10T07:45:59+00:00 /blog/catching_up_with_dr_rai_tci_thermal_conductivity_analyzer_client/ /blog/catching_up_with_dr_rai_tci_thermal_conductivity_analyzer_client/ Listen to Dr. Pradeep Rai speak on why Vertec Polymers chose the TCi Thermal Conductivity Analyzer for their thermal conductivity testing and characterization.  Vertec formulates and manufactures advanced polymer shapes for tribological applications to replace plastics, graphite, metals, and ceramics. 2011-03-01T14:15:04+00:00 /blog/testing_the_thermal_conductivity_of_asphalt/ /blog/testing_the_thermal_conductivity_of_asphalt/ Comparing the TCi's test results to Guarded Hot Plate (GHP) and traditional Transient Plane Source (TPS) methods in the measurement of light weight and normal weight asphalt. 2011-02-01T18:58:01+00:00
