Micro-viscometers                                                                < back

Low volume rotational micro-viscometers requiring ‘one drop’ of liquid.

The instrument measures the dynamic viscosity of liquids, the shear-rate dependencies of shear stress and viscosity, and the temperature and time dependencies of rheological properties.

Applications

• Beer and wort and other beverages

• (Bio)polymer solutions (including nucleic acids solutions)

• Lubricants

• Inks

• Biological Fluids

• Pharmaceuticals

• Coatings Blood/plasma

• Mineral oils

Benefits

• Extremely small sample volume (10-100 microL, i.e. one droplet)

• The ability to characterise the rheological characteristics of liquids over very wide range of shear rates (0.01 to 1000 1/s)

• Disposable, low cost, working parts,  i.e. viscometric stators and rotors of the measuring cell

• Durable and resilient to aggressive materials, e.g., strong acids or alkalies
