Significa

9、nce and Use3.1 Test MethodAis used for determining the apparent viscosity at a given rotational speed, although viscosities at two or morespeeds give better characterization of a non-Newtonian material than does a single viscosity measurement.3.2 With Test Methods B and C, the extent of shear thinni

10、ng is indicated by the drop in viscosity with increasing rotationalspeed. The degree of thixotropy is indicated by comparison of viscosities at increasing and decreasing rotational speeds (TestMethod B), viscosity recovery (Test Method B), or viscosities before and after high shear (combination of T

11、est Methods B andC). The high-shear treatment in Test Method C approximates shearing during paint application. The viscosity behavior measuredafter high shear is indicative of the characteristics of the paint soon after application.4. Apparatus4.1 Rotational ViscometerThe essential instrumentation r

13、 direct responsibility ofSubcommittee D01.24 on Physical Properties of Liquid Paints a minimum of three speeds is recommended. Set theviscometer at the slowest rotational speed chosen for the test (Note 98). Initiate the spindle rotation and record the reading afterten revolutions (or other agreed-u

14、pon number of revolutions).NOTE 9A higher initial rotational speed may be used upon agreement between producer and user.12.4 Increase the rotational speed in steps and record the reading after ten revolutions (or equivalent time for each spindle/speedcombination) at each speed. After an observation

15、has been made at the top speed, decrease the rotational speed in steps to theslowest speed, recording the reading after ten revolutions (or equivalent time) at each speed.NOTE 11It is preferable to change speed when the motor is running.12.5 After the last reading has been taken at the slowest speed

16、, stop the rotation and allow the specimen to stand undisturbedfor an agreed-upon rest period typically 1 minute. At the end of the rest period, start the spindle rotation at the slowest speed andrecord the reading after ten revolutions (or other agreed-upon number of revolutions).13. Calculations a

17、nd Interpretation of Results13.1 Calculate the apparent viscosity at each speed as shown in Section 8. If using a dial reading viscometer, calculate theequivalent viscosity value for each torque value as shown in Section 10.13.2 If desired, determine the degree of shear thinning by the following met

18、hod:13.2.1 Shear Thinning Index (sometimes erroneously called the thixotropicthix index)Divide the apparent viscosity at a lowrotational speed by the viscosity at a speed ten times higher. Typical speed combinations are 0.2 and 2 rad/srpm (2 and 20r/min),rpm), 0.5 and 5 rad/s (5rpm (5 and 50 r/min),

19、rpm), 0.6 and 6 rad/s (6rpm (6 and 60 r/min)rpm) but selection is subjectto agreement between producer and user. The resultant viscosity ratio is an index of the degree of shear thinning over that rangeof rotational speed with higher ratios indicating greater shear thinning.13.2.2 A regular or log-l

20、og plot of viscosity versus rotational speed may also be useful in characterizing the shear-thinningbehavior of the material. Such plots may be used for making comparisons between paints or other materials.13.3 If desired, estimate the degree of thixotropy (under conditions of limited shearing-out o

21、f structure) by one of the followingmethods:13.3.1 Calculate the ratio of the viscosity at the slowest rotational speed with increasing speed to that with decreasing initialviscosity reading to the final viscosity reading. Note that both readings were taken at the same rotational speed. The higher t

22、heratio, the greater the thixotropy.13.3.2 Calculate the ratio of the viscosity at the slowest speed taken after the rest period to that viscosity before the rest period.The higher the ratio, the greater the thixotropy.14.

Measurements at increasing speeds of 0.5, 1.0, 2.0, and 5.0 rad/s (5, 10, 20, and 50 r/min) (equivalent to eightoperat

39、ors testing 16 samples) were used to obtain the precision of Test Method A. The within-laboratory coefficient of variationfor Test Method A (single speed) was found to be 2.5 % with 121 df and for Test Method B (Shear Thinning Index) 3.3 % with31 df. The corresponding between-laboratories coefficien

40、ts are 7.7 % with 105 df and 7.6 % with 27 df. Based on these coefficientsthe following criteria should be used for judging the acceptability of results at the 95 % confidence level:22.1.1 RepeatabilityTwo results obtained by the same operator at different times should be considered suspect if they

41、differby more than 7.0 % relative for single speed viscosity and 9.5 % relative for shear thinning index.22.1.2 ReproducibilityTwo results obtained by operators in different laboratories should be considered suspect if they differby more than 22 % relative, respectively, for the same two test method
