The unit of viscosity obtained by dividing theshearing stress in N/m2by the rate of shear in reciprocalseconds is called the pascal

18、3.1.2 Newtonian liquida liquid in which the rate of shearis proportional to the shearing stress. The constant ratio of theshearing stress to rate of shear is the viscosity of the liquid. Ifthe ratio is not constant, the liquid is non-Newtonian.NOTE 2A power law fluid is a material in which the relat

19、ion betweenthe log of the shear stress is linear with the log of the shear rate. The slopeof this relation is called the shear susceptibility, C.IfC is less than unity,the material is classified as pseudoplastic and the apparent viscositydecreases with increased stress. If C is greater than one, the

20、 material isdilatant and the apparent viscosity increases with stress. If C is unity thematerial shows Newtonian flow. Most real materials show some non-Newtonian behavior and the apparent viscosity, computed as stressdivided by the shear rate, is reported.3.1.3 rheograma rheological diagram which s

However, since non-Newtonian viscosity values de-pend on the level of shearing stress, its duration, and the shearhistory of the material, a no

24、n-Newtonian viscosity is not aunique material property. Instead, it is a parameter which ischaracteristic of the fluid-viscometer system under the condi-tions of the measurement procedure.Therefore, comparisons ofnon-Newtonian material behavior should only be made usingapparent viscosities determine

Proce-dures of sample preparation are especially important forrepeatability or reproducibility of test results.NOTE 3The quality of the results produced by this standard aredependent on the competence of the pers

27、 withSpecification D3666 alone does not completely ensure reliable results.Reliable results depend on many factors; following the suggestions ofSpecification D3666 or some similar acceptable guideline provides ameans of evaluating and controlling some of those factors.6.

If the thermom-eter is completely submerged in the bath during use, thepressure of the gas in the expansion chamber will be higher orlower than during standardization, and may cause high or lowreadings of the thermometer.6.2.2 It is essential that liquid-i

47、hen the sample is poured.8.1.3 Charge the viscometer filling tube by pouring theprepared sample to within 62 mm of the fill line.NOTE 6In cases where highly viscous materials are being tested, thepossibility of air entrapment in the sample is greater. To alleviate thisproblem, a slight vacuum on the

48、 fill tube before the capillary tube is placedin position is suggested. This can be accomplished using a light vacuumsource attached to the fill tube for 30 s. A simple cork and tube shouldsuffice to achieve the desired effects.8.1.4 Place the charged viscometer filling tube in an ovenmaintained at

Insert the viscometer in a holder and positionthe viscometer in the bath so that the uppermost timing mark isat least 20 mm below the surface of the bath liquid.NOTE 7Capillary action on certain small-diameter viscometer tubesmay cause a rise of the sample above the first timing mark.
