Robert G McGregor, General Manager, Global Marketing, Brookfield Engineering Laboratories, gives an outlook about the type of instruments to be used while evaluating ‘thicker’ materials that ...

Following the recent publication of a study from Emory University that found elevated plasma viscosity levels in critically ill COVID-19 patients, a number of investigations are currently underway to ...

Click here for the oil viscosity test results chart. In this comparison, you can see the major difference between a high-volume small-block pump gear (left) and the Rat motor gear (right).

Higher viscosity despite fewer particles. The researchers used these particles to create suspensions that they could test for sudden increases in viscosity under stress.

Measuring viscosity (thickness) of a lubricant helps to determine its film strength and its efficiency in preventing friction between moving parts. Thick oil has a high viscosity and thin oil has a ...
