MIDDLEBORO, MA - Brookfield Sales Engineer and Rheology Lab Supervisor, David Moonay, has been awarded a U.S. patent for an algorithm he developed that provides “multi-decade viscometric or rheologic measurements of a material undergoing state change.” According to Moonay, “This algorithm allows us to use Brookfield instruments to collect data on products that gel or cure over a much wider range of viscosity than ever before.” Moonay developed the solution after talking with customers who complained that their gel timers couldn’t get the viscosity data they needed. Now, Brookfield customers can monitor gelling over a wide viscosity range at a reasonable price. The Cure Mode Test is included in Brookfield Rheocalc Software (version 3.0 and above) and can run on DV-II+Pro Viscometers, DV-III+ and DV-III Ultra Rheometers.
