Cement Extrusion Tester
Measurement of cement curing kinetics is critical for both R&D and quality control, but has traditionally required use of either complex and costly rheometers or highly variable qualitative tests for handling characteristics. The new Cement Extrusion Tester (CET), designed by engineers at Cambridge Polymer Group, provides accurate curing kinetics data and quantitative determination of handling […]
