Description This project is sponsored by a company interested in understanding the properties of certain polymer solutions used for manufacturing medical devices. In this project you will be performing experimental measurements using a range of techniques, including rheometry, to characterise in as much detail as possible the polymer solutions and assess the impact of e.g. aging and batch variability. Key Objectives

• Examine bx-to-bx variability
• Effect of aging on the properties - Evaporation rate of open containers & impact on rheology
