Say Something about Viscosity Testing

Hello Anyone who read this article.

I write this article because i have received many question about how to operate our machine.

Why need viscosity testing.

What can viscometer do.

Let’s learn something first.

What is viscosity?

The viscosity of a fluid is the measure of its resistance to gradual deformation by shear stress or tensile stress.-------Wikipedia

 

What is Ubbelohde viscometer?

An Ubbelohde type viscometer or suspended-level viscometer is a measuring instrument which uses a capillary based method of measuring viscosity.

A liquid is introduced into the reservoir then sucked through the capillary and measuring bulb. The liquid is allowed to travel back through the measuring bulb and the time it takes for the liquid to pass through two calibrated marks is a measure for viscosity.

The Ubbelohde device has a third arm extending from the end of the capillary and open to the atmosphere. In this way the pressure head only depends on a fixed height and no longer on the total volume of liquid.-------Wikipedia

Why testing viscosity?

Gathering viscosity data on a material gives manufacturers the ability to predict how the material will behave in the real world. For example, if toothpaste does not have the correct viscosity, it can either be too difficult to pump out from the tube, or pump out too much. 

Knowing the viscosity of a material also affects how the production and transportation processes are designed. 

Newtonian and Non-Newtonian fluids.  

Isaac Newton, the man to discover this formula, thought that, at a given temperature and shear stress, the viscosity of a fluid would remain constant regardless of changes to the shear rate. 

He was only partly right. A few fluids, such as water and honey, do behave this way. We call these fluids Newtonian fluids. Most fluids, however, have viscosities that fluctuate depending on the shear rate. These are called Non-Newtonian fluids.

There are five types of non-Newtonian fluids: thixotropic, rheopectic, pseudoplastic, dilatant, and plastic. Different considerations are required when measuring each of these fluid types.

How many accessories required for Viscosity testing?

Simple, follow the stander.

For example, if we testing the PET viscosity, we following the stander GB 17931 or GB/T 14190 or ASTM D4603 or ISO 1628-5.

All the details and progress were listed on the stander.

Take GB 17931 for example,it’s process as following:

How to choose the viscometer?

First,know what sample you are going to test? It’s it PET or Food?

Our viscometer only applied to test the viscosity of Newtonian liquid
