However, traditional methods (such as ASTM D445) are hindered by high maintenance needs, extensive manual input requirements, and time-consuming operations. The advanced patented technology utilized ...

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 ...

There is a strong link between what is called the weight-average molecular weight of a polymer and a parameter called the zero-shear viscosity. Although the correct link rather depends on the polymer, ...

A clinical viscosity diagnostic instrument is proving to be valuable in the research and treatment of coronavirus after laboratory scientists have identified its ability to provide meaningful data for ...

Following the recent publication of a study from Emory University that found elevated plasma viscosity levels in critically ill COVID-19 patients, a number of investigations are currently underway to ...

Castrol Canada is launching Castrol Tection Extra to boost viscosity protection for heavy duty truck engines. Engine oils have the potential to shear and lose viscosity, which can cause increased oil ...

At an engine teardown event held earlier this month, Shell Rotella engineers showed off parts from three engines used in a two-year, half-million mile test of the next-generation low-viscosity oil ...

Because the liquids would be over 100,000 cst, but shear-thinning, we had to install a hopper at the inlet of the pump. The ...
