This document discusses rheology, which is the science describing the flow and deformation of matter under stress. It defines key terms like viscosity, shear stress, shear rate, and classifies fluids as Newtonian or non-Newtonian based on their relationship between shear stress and shear rate. Newtonian fluids have a constant viscosity regardless of shear rate, while non-Newtonian fluids have variable viscosity. Plastic, pseudoplastic, and dilatant behaviors are described for non-Newtonian fluids. Thixotropy, which is a time-dependent decrease and recovery of viscosity under shear, is also discussed. The document concludes by explaining the operation and calibration of common viscometers.

Rheology is the science that study flow of fluids. Viscosity is the main parameter of flow. Newtonian & non newtonian are the two types of flow behavior according to newtons law of flow. non-newtonian flow can be plastic, pseudoplastic, dilatant, thixotropic, antithixotropic or rheopexy. viscosity can be determined by using various viscometers such as capillary viscometer, cup & bob viscometer, cone & plate viscometer, falling sphere viscometer, brookfield viscometer, etc. factors affeting viscosity are intrinsic, extrinsic or temperature dependence.

Richard's aventures in two entangled wonderlandsRichard Gill
Since the loophole-free Bell experiments of 2020 and the Nobel prizes in physics of 2022, critics of Bell's work have retreated to the fortress of super-determinism. Now, super-determinism is a derogatory word - it just means "determinism". Palmer, Hance and Hossenfelder argue that quantum mechanics and determinism are not incompatible, using a sophisticated mathematical construction based on a subtle thinning of allowed states and measurements in quantum mechanics, such that what is left appears to make Bell's argument fail, without altering the empirical predictions of quantum mechanics. I think however that it is a smoke screen, and the slogan "lost in math" comes to my mind. I will discuss some other recent disproofs of Bell's theorem using the language of causality based on causal graphs. Causal thinking is also central to law and justice. I will mention surprising connections to my work on serial killer nurse cases, in particular the Dutch case of Lucia de Berk and the current UK case of Lucy Letby.

Observation of Io’s Resurfacing via Plume Deposition Using Ground-based Adapt...Sérgio Sacani
Since volcanic activity was first discovered on Io from Voyager images in 1979, changes
on Io’s surface have been monitored from both spacecraft and ground-based telescopes.
Here, we present the highest spatial resolution images of Io ever obtained from a groundbased telescope. These images, acquired by the SHARK-VIS instrument on the Large
Binocular Telescope, show evidence of a major resurfacing event on Io’s trailing hemisphere. When compared to the most recent spacecraft images, the SHARK-VIS images
show that a plume deposit from a powerful eruption at Pillan Patera has covered part
of the long-lived Pele plume deposit. Although this type of resurfacing event may be common on Io, few have been detected due to the rarity of spacecraft visits and the previously low spatial resolution available from Earth-based telescopes. The SHARK-VIS instrument ushers in a new era of high resolution imaging of Io’s surface using adaptive
optics at visible wavelengths.

2. RHEOLOGY
Science describing the flow and deformation
of matter under stress.
Rheo = the flow
Viscosity is the resistance of a fluid
material to flow under stress. The higher the
viscosity, the greater the resistance.
3. Importance of rheology
– Formulation of medicinal and cosmetic creams,
pastes and lotion.
– Formulation of emulsion, suspension, suppositories
and tablet coatings.
– Fluidity of solutions for injection.
– In mixing and flow of materials, their packaging into
containers, their removal prior to use, whether by
pouring from a bottle, extrusion from a tube, or
passage through a syringe needle.
– Can affect patient acceptability, physical stability, and
even biological availability.
4. Viscosity
Viscosity is an index of resistance of a liquid to
flow.
The higher the viscosity the greater the
resistance
Water and alcohol has the least resistance to
flow (lowest viscosity)
5. Types of viscosity
Kinematic viscosity: It is defined as the
viscosity(neta) divided (row) of the liquid.
Viscosity is expressed as kinematic viscosity in
official pharmacopoeias. It is expressed as
kinematic viscosity=neta/row
The unit of kinematic viscosity is stokes (s) and
centistokes(cs)
6. Types of viscosity
Relative viscosity: the coefficient, abbreviated,
neta r is defined as the ratio of viscosity of the
dispersion (neta) to that of the solvent neta0
(vehicle) it is mathematically expressed as
Relatively viscosity, nr =neta-neta0/neta0
7. Types of viscosity
Specific viscosity: this term is defined as the
relative increase in the viscosity of the
dispersion over that of the solvent (vehicle)
alone. It is mathematically expressed as
Specific viscosity, neta sp=n-n0/n0
Reduced viscosity: this term is defined as the
ratio of specific viscosity to the concentration
(c). It is mathematically expressed as
Reduced viscosity=netasp/c
8. Types of viscosity
Specific viscosity: this term is defined as the
relative increase in the viscosity of the
dispersion over that of the solvent (vehicle)
alone. It is mathematically expressed as
Specific viscosity, neta sp=n-n0/n0
Reduced viscosity: this term is defined as the
ratio of specific viscosity to the concentration
(c). It is mathematically expressed as
Reduced viscosity=netasp/c
9. Types of viscosity
Intrinsic viscosity: the reduced viscosity is
determined at various concentrations of a
substance and the results are plotted. The
resulting line can be extrapolated to c=0 to
obtain the intercept. The intercept value is
known as intrinsic viscosity. This parameter is
useful to determine the molecular weight of
polymers.
10. Other important definitions
Shear stress is defined as the force per unit area
F’/A, which is applied to bring about the flow
Shear stress, F=F’/A
Velocity gradient or rate of shear, dv/dr is defined
as the change in the velocity, dv, with an
infinitesmal change in distance, dr.
Rate of shear, G=dv/dr
The higher the viscosity of the liquid the greater is
the force per unit area required to produce a certain
rate of shear.
11. Other important definitions
Hence the relationship between shear stress
and rate of shear is given as follows
F’/A∞dv/dr
Or F’/A=neta dv/dr
Or F=netaG
In which neta is the coefficient of viscosity and
usually referred to as viscosity.
Viscosity is calculated by neta=F/G
This equation is called as Newtonian equation
12. Rheogram
G V neta=1
F
Rheogram: Rheogram is a plot of rate of shear Vs shearing stress.
For Newtonian liquid if G is plotted Vs F the flow curve gives straight
line passing through the origin and the slope is the coefficient of
viscosity and is equivalent to 1
13. Other important definitions
Coefficient of viscosity is defined as the force
per unit area required to maintain unit difference
in velocity between two parallel layers in the
liquid, one centimeter apart
Units of Viscosity:
In ISO system the unit of viscosity is the poise,
named after Poiseulle. It is practically expressed
as centipoise, cp (=0.01 poise)
In CGS system the units for viscosity is dynes/cm2
14. Other important definitions
Poise: it is defined as the shearing stress
required to produce a velocity of 1cm/sec
between two parallel planes of a liquid each
1cm2 in area and separated by a distance of
1cm.
Fluidity: this term fluidity ø is used to denote
the reciprocal of viscosity i.e. Fluidity ø=1/neta
15. Thixotropy and Antithixotropy
“Change by touch”
Thixotropy is defined as an isothermal and
comparatively slow recovery process on standing
of a material of a consistency lost through
shearing. This is applied for plastic and
pseudoplastic system. This is also called as gel to
sol to gel transformation.
Antithixotropy: This is also called as negative
thixotropy, this represents an increase in
consistency on the down curve. The down curve
shifts to the right of the up curve. This is also called
as sol to gel to sol transformation
20. Shearstress
NEWTONIAN FLOW
Newton assumed that all materials have, at a given
temperature, a viscosity that is independent of the shear
rate.
In other words, twice the force would move the fluid twice
as fast.
Simple Newtonian Rheogram
Shear rate
viscosity
21. Shear: is the movement of material
relative to parallel layer.
Shear stress (F’): is the force per unit
area required to bring about flow (F/A)
Shear rate (S) difference in velocity dv,
between two planes of liquids separated
by distance dr (i.e. dv/dr)
F/A α dv/dr
22. Absolute (dynamic) viscosity
Viscosity= = F’ = shear stress = dyn m-2 = dyn m-2 s
S shear rate sec-1
The fundamental unit of viscosity measurement is
the poise. A material requiring a shear stress of
one dyne per square centimeter to produce a
shear rate of one reciprocal second has a
viscosity of one poise, or 100 centipoise.
23. Definitions
Fluidity; it is the reciprocal of viscosity
Ø = 1/
Kinematic Viscosity:
It is the absolute viscosity divided by the density
of liquid at a specified temperature
Kinematic viscosity = p
Where p is the density of the liquid
The unite is Stock (s) or centistock (cs)
24. Definitions
Relative viscosity:
Is the relation of the solution viscosity to
the viscosity of the solvent “standard”
rel =
_ Specific Viscosity
sp = rel-1
25. Example
A) The viscosity of acetone at 25°C is 0.313 cp, its density at
25°C is 0.788 g/cm3. What is its kinematic viscosity at
25°C?
B) Water is usually used as a standard of liquids. Its viscosity
at 25°C is 0.89 cp. What is the viscosity of acetone
relative to that of water (relative viscosity, rel ) at 25°C?
Solutions:
a) Kinematic viscosity = 0.313 cp ÷ 0.788 g/cm3= 0.397 cs
b) Relative viscosity rel = 0.313 cp ÷ 0.8904 cp = 0.352
(dimensionless)
28. NON- -NEWTONIAN SYSTEMS
A non- -Newtonian fluid is defined as one for
which the relationship between F’ and S is not a
constant.
In other words, when the shear rate is varied,
the shear stress doesn't vary in the same
proportion. The viscosity of such fluids will
therefore change as the shear rate is varied.
It can be seen in liquid and solid heterogeneous
dispersions such as colloids, emulsions, liquid
suspensions and ointments.
30. 1.PLASTIC FLOW
Plastic flow is associated with the preparation of
flocculation or aggregations of particles in
concentrated suspension, also known as
Bingham bodies.
A Bingham body does not begin to flow until a
shearing stress corresponding to the yield value
is exceeded.
Yield value (f); is an indication of the force that
must be applied to a system to convert it to a
Newtonian System.
Examples; suspension of Zno in mineral oil,
certain paints, ointments
33. PLASTIC FLOW (CONT.)
The slope of the rheogram is termed
Mobility, analogous to fluidity in Newtonian
system, and its reciprocal is known as
Plastic viscosity, U
U= F – f
S
Where f is the yield value
34. PLASTIC FLOW (CONT.)
Problem
A plastic material was found to have a yield value of 5200
dyne.cm-2. At a shearing stress above yield value, F was
found to increase linearly with S. If the rate of shear was
150 sec-1 when F was 8000 dyne.cm-2. Calculate the
plastic viscosity of the sample.
Solution:
U = F – f = 8000 – 5200 = 18. .67 poise
S 150
35. 2. Pseudoplastic Flow (shear- -thinning)
The curve begins at the origin (or approach it),
there is no yield value.
Occurs in dispersion of polymers (e.g. syenthetic
or natural gum, cellulose derivatives)
As the shearing stress is increased, disarranged
molecules orient themselves to the direction of
flow. This orientation reduces internal friction
and resistance of the molecules and allows a
greater rate of shear at each shear stress.
Some of the solvent associated with molecules
will be released resulting in decreasing the
viscosity.
This type of flow behavior is sometimes called
shear- -thinning.
38. Pseudoplastic Flow
-Random arrangement
polymer chains
-Solvent interact with polymer
- Chain entalgment
Increased
stress
-Chains line up in the direction of the
Applied stress
-Layers move over each other more
easily
-More vehicle available
39. Pseudo-Plastic flow Rheogram
Pseudo-Plastic flow
rate of shear
(G)
Shearing Stress (F)
The curve begins at (or near) the origin, there is no
yield value
-Apparent viscosity at any shear rate is determined
from the slop of a tangent to the curve at that point
40. 3. Dilatant Flow
(shear- -thickening)
Certain suspensions with a high percentage (up
to 50%) of deflocculated solids exhibit an
increase in resistance to flow with increasing
rate of shear.
Such systems actually increase in volume when
sheared and hence termed dilatant.
This type of flow behavior is sometimes called
shear--thickening.
When stress is removed, a dilatent system
returns to its original state of fluidity. E.g. corn
starch in water.
42. Reasons for Dilatency
1. At rest particles are closely packed with minimal
inter- -particle volume (void), so the amount of
vehicle is enough to fill in voids and permits
particles to move at low rate of shear.
2. Increase shear stress, the bulk of the system
expand (dilate), and the particles take an open
form of packing.
3. The vehicle becomes insufficient to fill the voids
between particles. Accordingly, particles are no
longer completely wetted (lubricated) by the
vehicle.
4. Finally, the suspension will set up as a firm
paste.
5. This process is reversible.
44. SIGNIFICANCE OF DILATENCY
Such behaviour suggests that appropriate precautions
should be used during processing of dilatent materials.
Mixing (powder+granulating liquid) is usually conducted
in high speed mixers, dilatent materials may solidify
under these conditions thereby damage the equipments.
46. THIXOTROPY
Non-Newtonian, Time Dependent behaviour.
Definition of Thixotropy:
It is the decrease in viscosity as a function
of time upon shearing, then recovery of
original viscosity as a function of time
without shearing.
47. THIXOTROPY
– A decrease in apparent viscosity with time under
constant shear rate or shear stress, followed by a
gradual recovery, when the stress or shear rate is
removed.
– Such system contain asymmetric particles forming a
loose network through sample. At rest, this structure
impart rigidity to system resembling gel. As shear
applied, the structure begin to break and the material
undergo Gel-to-Sol transformation. Finally, at rest the
structure is restored again (Sol-to Gel).
– It happens with pseudoplastic materials (shear-
thinner)
50. THIXOTROPY
Examples of thixotropic samples are ketchup,
consumer paints, yoghurts, mayonnaise.
Thixotropic samples break their structure under
shear rate and rebuilds the structure at rest. The
rebuild is occurring under a material specific
time scale. The rebuild speed is highest at rest
and slow at low shear rates.
51. Thixotropy in Formulation
In suspension, particles will not settle down in
the container (gel form), will become fluid (sol)
on shaking for a dose to dispense. At rest, it will
retain its consistency to maintain the particles
suspended. This is also applied to emulsions,
lotions and creams.
40-
Parenteral suspensions used for intramuscular
depot therapy, e.g. procaine penicilline G (40-
70% w/v in water)
52. Rheopexy
– An increase in apparent viscosity with time
under constant shear rate or shear stress,
followed by a gradual recovery when the
stress or shear rate is removed. Also called
Anti-thixotropy or negative thixotropy.

attractions
