Definition: An instrument which continuously measures the torque exerted in shearing a polymer or compound specimen over a wide range of shear rates and temperatures, including those conditions anticipated in actual plant practice. The instrument records torque, time and temperature on a graph called a plastogram. The results provide information with regard to processability of an experimental compound and the effects of additives and fillers. It also measures and records lubricity, plasticity, scorch, cure, shear and heat stability and polymer consistency. Also known as PLASTICORDER.
