Key Features
Vertical Density-Gradient Simulation
The LS-ST-20 provides a standardized environment for simulating long-term storage conditions of modified binders. The vertical architecture ensures that any polymer-binder separation occurs strictly along the z-axis for accurate sectioning and analysis.
High-Boro Precision Metrology
Utilizing specialized 250mL tubes with a 310mm effective height, the system allows for precise volumetric loading. The wide 32mm port facilitates the sampling of high-viscosity binders without entraining air or causing thermal shocks.
Heavy-Duty Industrial Base
Equipped with a 10mm chrome-plated solid steel base, the LS-ST-20 offers superior anti-vibration performance and a low center of gravity, preventing accidental displacement during high-temperature incubation (163°C) in standard ovens.
