For Dilute Solution Viscosity of Polymers in Organic Solvents and Aqueous Solutions
miniPV® is a fully-automated, single sample, benchtop viscometer for testing dilute solution viscosity of polymers in organic solvents and aqueous solutions. The Ubbelohde-style tube covers a 100-fold viscosity range between 0.3 cSt and 5,000 cSt from 20 °C to 100 °C.

Thermoplastic elastomers
Copolymers
Biopolymers
Polymer blends
Oligomers
Pre-polymers
Resins
Viscosity modifiers
Designed to meet specific polymer industry needs
Compatible with organic solvents and aqueous solutions
On-board software with specialized polymer calculations determines relative, inherent, reduced, specific and intrinsic viscosity
Superb temperature control (±0.01°C) from 20° C to 100 °C (with available options)
Kinematic viscosity range: 0.3 mm²/s (cSt) to 5,000 mm²/s (cSt) in 100-fold increments. Special ranges available upon request.
Compact, robust design
Fits in roughly the same bench-top area as an analytical balance
Conserves valuable lab space
Proven CANNON® viscometer platform offers reliability and outstanding support
Optional Peltier cooling is environmentally friendly and requires no external refrigeration
Fully automated bench-top testing
Software controls the instrument and facilitates tasks such as calibration, data entry, method specification, calculation selection, report formatting, and data exporting
Single PC manages up to 4 instruments using VISCPRO® software
Reduces operator to operator variability
Reduced consumable costs
ASTM D 446/ISO 3105 Ubbelohde-style tube reduces solvent usage and disposal costs by 50%
Automated vial washing & drying reduces vial consumption and replaces manual washing
Simplified maintenance & test versatility
Modular bath for easy maintenance access
Viscometer tube replacement completed in minutes
Single-point temperature calibration avoids need for tube recalibration and maximizes test flexibility
