Gelpunktanalyse
Gelpunktanalyse, also known as gel point analysis, is a technique used in the study of polymers and other materials to determine the point at which a system transitions from a liquid to a solid state. This transition is characterized by the formation of a three-dimensional network of polymer chains, which gives the material its solid-like properties. The gel point is a critical parameter in the design and optimization of polymer systems, as it affects the material's mechanical, thermal, and chemical properties.
The gel point can be determined using various experimental techniques, such as rheological measurements, which involve
Gelpunktanalyse is widely used in the development of new materials, such as adhesives, coatings, and sealants,
