The apparent viscosity at the point decreases distinctly with the increment of shear rate.
Determination for apparent viscosity of polyvinyl chloride paste
The results show that shearing rate, solid rate and cooling speed have great effects on apparent viscosity of semi-solid AZ91D slurry.
In addition, adding calcium chloride to pectin solution could increase its apparent viscosity.
The results show that the coatings with good application properties have larger apparent viscosity , higher yield stress , lower plastic viscosity and proper thixotropy at lower shear rate.
