How Do I Read the Mooney Curve?

If you're new to the rubber industry or trying to learn more about your compounds, the Mooney viscometer is one of the starting points. The Mooney unit and curve are still actively used throughout the industry and hints at a polymer's processing characteristics. This video breaks down everything you need to know. Feel free to use this as a training resource for understanding the Mooney curve.

Here is what you will learn:

• The fundamental theory of the Mooney Curve
• Calculation method for Mooney Unit
• Calculation method for Stress Relaxation
• Explanation of Mooney Scorch
• Uses for the Mooney Viscometer
• And more!
