The study highlights the importance of shear-thinning behavior in artificial tears, crucial for mimicking natural tear ...

Although water’s shear viscosity is important in accurate molecular dynamics modeling, the results from two popular water models differ from those of actual experiments by as much as 20%. In a recent ...

Water models enable the simulation of the behavior of water molecules in a volume and the calculation of important micro- and macroscopic properties from the observed interactions. This study ...

It is used for food grade packaging and bottling, such as the PET bottle. Because of its superior texture compatibility, PET ...

An international research team is attracting the attention of experts in the field with computational results on the behavior of ring polymers under shear forces: They showed that for the simplest ...

The sensor provides continuous, real-time, in-line viscosity measurements for in-line process control systems that requre high resolution and accuracy. The sensor is 1.3 x 1.1 x 0.4 in. and weighs ...

What do paint, dishwasher detergent, ketchup and blood have in common? All are composed of particles suspended in a carrier liquid and flow when stirred or forced, but remain thick or even gel-like at ...

The present application note explains how to calculate the molar mass Mw based on the Zero-Shear Viscosity value measured by a Frequency Sweep. The Zero-Shear Viscosity can be evaluated by applying ...

If you’ve ever whacked the bottom of a ketchup bottle to get that tasty tomato goop flowing, you’ve put some serious physics to work. Ketchup is a non-Newtonian fluid. So are toothpaste, yogurt, ...

Water is one of the most abundant substances on Earth and partakes in countless biological, chemical, and ecological processes. Thus, understanding its behavior and properties is essential in a wide ...
