Dynamic
Mechanical Analysis (DMA) is a powerful technique for understanding the
viscoelastic properties of materials. It has become a powerful tool for
chemists, polymer and material scientists, and engineers. Despite this, it often
remains underutilized in the modern laboratory. Because of its high sensitivity
to the presence of the glass transition, many users limit it to detecting glass
transitions that can’t be seen by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC).
This
book presents a practical and straightforward approach to understanding how DMA
works and what it measures. Starting with the concepts of stress and strain,
the text takes the reader through stress–strain, creep, and thermomechanical
analysis. DMA is discussed as both the instrument and fixtures as well as the
techniques for measuring both thermoplastic and thermosetting behavior. This
edition offers expanded chapters on these areas as well as frequency scanning
and other application areas. To help the reader grasp the material, study
questions have also been added. Endnotes have been expanded and updated.
