Asylum Research is introducing a Coolerheater accessory designed for polymer and other studies where cooling and heating are required.
The Coolerheater joins Asylum's growing suite of environmental control products for the MFP-3D AFM platform.
The Coolerheater uses a Peltier element to cool samples down to - 35C and heat up to +120C.
The cooling temperature and heating rate can be set using the AFM software and can be computer controlled.
The Coolerheater can be sealed for use in air or in a controlled gaseous environment.
The heating element is also liquid tight and suitable for liquid drop experiments.
This product complements the MFP-3D Polyheater, a modular heating stage designed specifically for high-temperature studies from ambient to 300C in a controlled gaseous environment.
These heating and cooling accessories are suitable for studying temperature-dependent phenomena such as phase transitions and chemical reactions, as well as for investigating the dependence of mechanical, electrical, magnetic and thermal properties of materials on temperature.
Each kit includes a clamp and membrane for sealed operation and is exclusively for use with Asylum's MFP-3D AFMs.
Temperature data can be logged and saved with each acquired AFM image.
