The TA.XTPlus is capable of precisely quantifying a wide variety of the adhesive properties of such products as adhesives, glues, adhesive tapes, labels, hot melts, bandages, caulkings, coatings, creams/lotions, gels, silicon gels, medical gels, resins, sealants, solder paste, waxes, paints, inks, etc.

Many of the parameters which can be quantified with the TA.XTPlus Texture Analyzer and its software packages are not otherwise quantifiable with alternative instruments. Such parameters include adhesiveness/stickiness, "quick stick", tack, tackiness, cohesiveness, shear strength, stringiness, extensibility, and peel strength. Adhesive testing has never been the same.  Now with the same instrument you can quantify virtually any product's adhesive characteristics.  You no longer need to rely on rolling ball-style tests, non-reproduciable tack tests, static shear tests which can take days for test results, or even archaic Instron -style tests which cannot capture the behaviors you have designed into your materials.

The TA.XTPlus' ease of use, flexibility, accuracy and repeatability is making it an extremely popular method for quantifying your products.  Ask us about our references in the adhesive industry, and for our brochures, application studies, and article reprints from Adhesive & Sealants Industry &  Adhesive Age magazines.
