Webinar Summary

In this on-demand webinar, viewers can expect to see presentations from three Bruker experts, on the techniques of AFM, nanoIR, and nanoindentation for non-destructive, in-situ characterization of polymers.

Each testing method section includes a presentation and a live demonstration.

Atomic force microscopy (AFM)

Discussion of nanoscale imaging of challenging polymer structures
Multiparametric characterization of material properties, such as elastic, viscoelastic, electrical, and thermal properties
In situ study of dynamic behavior and processes, like crystallization and melting
Investigation into the influence of environmental conditions on sample properties

Nanoscale infrared (nanoIR) spectroscopy

Description of chemical characterization of polymeric materials
Insights into new and existing photothermal AFM-IR techniques
Demonstration of how to achieve quality results

Nanoindentation testing

Exploration of quantitative in-situ nanomechanical characterization methods
Investigation of materials properties such as elastic modulus, hardness, stress relaxation, interfacial adhesion, and fracture toughness at the nanoscale and microscale
Control of environmental conditions, particularly temperature control for polymers testing
