HAAKE™ Viscotester™ iQ Air Rheometers
Thermo Scientific™ HAAKE™ Viscotester™ iQ and Viscotester™ iQ Air rheometers measure and analyze the rheological properties of a wide range of liquid, paste, and semi-solid samples. The Viscotester iQ rheometer is a simple solution designed to meet the rheological needs of QC labs on a daily basis. The Viscotester iQ Air rheometer is the world's smallest commercial oscillation air bearing rheometer. Either rheometer can be used as a standalone portable unit or as a fully software-controlled component of your QC lab.
HAAKE Viscotester iQ Rheometers are the replacement for HAAKE Viscotester 550 Rotational Viscometer
Ideal for Industrial Quality Control in Paints & Coatings, Foods, Cosmetics & Pharmaceuticals, Battery & Clean Energy, Polymers & Chemicals, Cement & Building Materials, Petrochemicals
