Rheology of Coatings and Inks
Rheology of Coatings and Inks Coatings and inks are two of the most common structured fluids that are characterized on rotational rheometers. Rheometers offer experimentalists many opportunities to perform selected tests that can reveal information about the properties of the fluids and allow one to predict the processability of these systems. Of particular interest are…
Melt Viscosity Measurements at High Temperatures
Overview Maintaining the optimum viscosity of a molten material is key for efficiency and product quality of many industrial processes. Processing of melts at high temperatures is the basis for classical or additive manufacturing of many materials like glasses or metals. Molten slag or ash viscosity is essential for economically operating industrial gasification processes…
