Pharmaceutical producers, research laboratories, and manufacturers of food-grade materials rely on precise viscosity data to ensure specification compliance. Anton Paar’s SVM series provides a ...

In the same category of capillary viscometers, tube viscometers (Figure 2C) use a horizontal tube fed by a pressurized tank to determine viscosity.2 In these instruments, the pressure is determined at ...

WHEN a capillary-tube viscometer is used for determining the apparent viscosity of a suspension of discrete, solid particles in a liquid, it is found that the measured viscosity varies with the bore ...

The United States Pharmacopeia has stated that references to General Chapter <911> "Viscosity" will be changed to General Chapter <911> "Viscosity-Capillary Viscometer Methods," <912> "Rotational ...

Viscosity, or a fluid’s resistance to flow, is independent of the rate of shear or shear stress, at a given temperature, for Newtonian fluids. Non-Newtonian fluids such as polymer solutions often ...

This article discusses how using the hand-held, solvent-free SpectroVisc Q3000 Series in the field delivers accurate kinematic viscosity measurements immediately, even when compared to conventional ...

In this article, we will consider what viscosity is, how it is measured and the applications of viscometry in the food and beverage industry. When a force or stress is applied to a fluid, it flows, ...
