- Description
- The Federal Highway Administration plans to award a Purchase Order to TA Instruments to purchase a Dynamic Shear Rheometer (DSR) to measure fundamental rheological properties (the complex modulus and the myriad derived parameters) of asphalts, mastics, and modified binders used in asphalt pavements. The TA Instruments brand DSR has Smart Swap Technology. This is a uniquely patented system that allows change of temperature control options, required for different kinds of DSR measurements, while maintaining the necessarily very precise locations of the various sample holders used in the different temperature ranges. This time saving technology is imperative to FHWAs mission. TA Instruments is the only known source that provides a DSR with the Smart Swap Technology. Therefore, no other known source is available to provide the necessary rheometer. This is a Simplified Acquisition and the award date is on or before August 14, 2002.
