When a liquid is cooled quickly below its melting temperature, it rapidly loses kinetic energy, resulting in a sharply increasing shear viscosity and an accompanying ordering of the liquid structure.

Understanding viscosity in binary liquid mixtures is critical for numerous industrial and research applications. Viscosity, the measure of a fluid's resistance to flow, is not only influenced by ...

Have you ever turned a liquid into a solid just by tapping on it? Watch this fun video and learn how to conduct a viscosity experiment at home with a few simple steps! Click here to download a PDF of ...

Getting ketchup out of the bottle isn't always easy. However, shaking the bottle before trying to pour allows the thick, gooey ketchup to flow more freely because it becomes more fluid when agitated.

It is important to understand that there is no simple relationship between viscosity and particle size that covers all types of liquids. Liquid viscosity is caused by forces between its particles, ...

In a new study, scientists show that two fundamental physical constants govern how runny a liquid can be. Their equation relates the minimal value of elementary viscosity (the product of viscosity and ...

Students will experiment with three different liquids to determine the relative viscosity and flow rate of each liquid. Mount Nyiragongo is a volcano in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, 18 ...

Stir lots of small particles into water, and the resulting thick mixture appears highly viscous. When this dense suspension slips through a nozzle and forms a droplet, however, its behavior ...

Liquid packaging looks simple until foam, drift, or recurring stops cut output. Efficiency means stable throughput, accurate ...
