HAAKE MiniCTW Micro-Conical Twin Screw Compounder for industrial research and development needs a sample amount of 5g or 7cm³ only. Nobody can afford to waste expensive raw materials when developing new products. In addition, it helps to shorten time-to-market and cut development costs to gain a distinct competitive advantage. Therefore, quick and early assessments of a new material are key. The micro-conical twin screw compounder Thermo Scientific HAAKE MiniCTW allows extrudating as little as five grams of material and thereby helps to accelerate the conception of the final product.

When compounding expensive or small scale materials such as nano-composites or engineered polymers, you need a fast, dependable, cost efficient method to obtain tangible results.

Priced right, the HAAKE Mini CTW Micro-Conical Twin Screw Compounder is the answer: The HAAKE MiniCTW requires as little as five grams or seven milliliters (ml) of material for compounding, which is especially beneficial for industries that compound expensive or small-scale materials such as nano-composites, bio-polymers or pharmaceuticals. By using the optional force feeder, customers can continuously extrude very small material volumes. The instrument is based on proven, conical twin screw technology with co- and counter-rotating screws, and it works as a standalone unit with data export. Due to the channel and a backflow bypass valve, the residence time can be exactly defined.

The HAAKE MiniCTW Micro-Conical Twin Screw Compounder is ideal for the precisely controlled reactive extrusion of high-viscous melts that is being done via an MS-Windows™based software that offers several test set-ups. By running the instrument in circulation mode, the required reaction time for the reactive mixture can be controlled easily. At the end of the test, the bypass valve can be opened and the sample is extruded as a strand. By measuring the torque of the drive motor, the reaction process can be monitored effectively. Test results are stored in the software. The HAAKE MiniCTW Micro-Conical Twin Screw Compounder is one model within our suite of micro-conical twin screw compounders that serves a variety of markets, including polymer, bioscience, nanotechnology and pharmaceutical. The instrument differs from the well-established Thermo Scientific HAAKE MiniLab micro-compounder in that it is designed specifically for industrial research and development whereas the HAAKE MiniLab is focused on polymer development applications. To complete our comprehensive solutions, our international team of material characterization experts provides proven answers for small sample compounding.

자주 묻는 질문(FAQ)

Should I choose the Thermo Scientific HAAKE MiniCTW micro compounder or the HAAKE MiniLab 3 micro conical twin-screw extruder?

The choice depends on whether your application requires rheological characterization during micro-compounding or compounding alone. The Thermo Scientific HAAKE MiniLab 3 micro compounder features an integrated backflow channel that continuously recirculates the material, allowing rheological characterization during processing in addition to micro-compounding. The HAAKE MiniCTW micro conical twin-screw extruder is designed for micro-compounding only and is well suited for applications that do not require integrated rheological characterization.

What applications is the Thermo Scientific HAAKE MiniCTW Micro-conical Twin Screw Compounder used for?

The Thermo Scientific HAAKE MiniCTW twin-screw compounder is commonly used for instance for polymer formulation development, additive screening, reactive extrusion or nanocomposite. Its capability to process sample quantities as small as 5 g makes it suitable for evaluating high-value polymers, biopolymers, recycled materials, and specialty compounds when material availability is limited. For pharmaceutical applications the Thermo Scientific Pharma mini HME Micro Compounder, a GMP-compliant conical micro compounder for hot-melt extrusion in research and development in the pharmaceutical industry is available.

What is the minimum sample size required for micro-compounding with the Thermo Scientific HAAKE MiniCTW Micro-Conical Twin Screw Compounder?

The Thermo Scientific HAAKE MiniCTW Micro-Conical Twin Screw Compounder is designed for micro-compounding and rheological characterization using sample quantities as small as 5 g (7 cm³). Its low sample requirement is intended to support polymer formulation development, additive evaluation, material screening, and research involving specialty polymers, nanocomposites, biopolymers, and pharmaceutical compounds when material availability is limited. Processing small sample quantities can help researchers evaluate formulations while reducing material consumption during early-stage development.

What is micro-compounding and when is it used?

Micro-compounding is a small-scale polymer processing technique used to evaluate formulation and compounding behavior when only limited amounts of material are available. It is commonly used in polymer research and early-stage material development, where materials may be expensive or available only in small quantities. Micro-compounding systems are used to prepare and evaluate polymer formulations using small sample volumes under controlled processing conditions. Depending on the instrument design, they may be used for compounding only or may also support characterization of material behavior during processing. Micro-compounding is commonly used to develop new polymer formulations, evaluate additives and fillers, screen recycled materials, and optimize processing conditions before scaling up to larger extrusion or manufacturing processes.
