A new technique combined with changes in material design is making reversible viscosity modulations possible, according to researchers from the University of Guelph in Ontario, Canada. By connecting ...

Sound waves can measure viscosity on the fly. Though viscosity is the degree to which a fluid resists flow, it is more specifically a measure of a fluid's molecular friction. It can be a useful ...

Discover Lovis 2001, a one-of-a-kind rolling-ball microviscometer that operates on Hoeppler's falling ball principle. This falling ball viscometer has an adjustable measurement angle, which ensures ...

In this interview, AZoM speaks to Dr Larry Spino about Viscosity analysis, what is constant pressure viscometry and its benefits and what PAC L.P. offers to fulfil viscosity analysis needs. Viscosity ...

(Nanowerk Spotlight) In medical applications, artificial micro/nanorobots have gained a lot of attention over the last decade due to their promise to behave as ingestible vehicles of drug delivery to ...

A fluid's viscosity, its resistance to flowing, is usually expressed as the ratio of its shear velocity of motion to rotational torque. It's difficult to measure because it's so dependent on ...

Every fleet owner should know the basics about the viscosity of the lubricants they are using and why the viscosity matters. Fleets—especially mixed ones—require a variety of lubricants. This ranges ...

University of Connecticut researchers have developed a device that tests an important indicator of heart health that is often ignored - blood viscosity. Blood can be a window into the health of your ...

Relationship between a measure of structural disorder and viscosity for a polydisperse hard-sphere-like system. The relationship between the structural measure and the viscosity can be collapsed on ...
