Relative to flow-rate, the efficiency, or Beta ratio, of a filter may change slightly but this is generally not that significant unless you are talking about wide extremes of flow. We can test an ...

This article explores viscosity, covering definitions, measurement considerations, viscometer selection, and the symbiotic relationship between viscosity and rheology. The critical elements to ...

Rheology is the study of the flow and deformation of materials under applied forces, covering both liquids and solids. It examines how materials respond to stress, strain or flow, revealing ...

Among the first instruments plastics molders, extruders, and compounders are likely to consider when outfitting a new lab is a melt-flow indexer or “melt indexer.” Known as an extrusion plastometer in ...

Journal bearing design is complex. It involves optimizing clearances, bearing length, minimum film lubricant, viscosity, flow rate, and inlet slots. Design equations are available, but their solution ...

Critical process parameters must be considered to optimize manufacturing of topical dosage forms. An ideal topical formulation can be produced using a simple, flexible process. Most topical ...
