AMONG the properties of liquids the viscosity is probably the one the investigation of which has suffered most from lack of any accepted theory, however crude and approximate, to guide it. A great ...

Getting ketchup out of the bottle isn't always easy. However, shaking the bottle before trying to pour allows the thick, gooey ketchup to flow more freely because it becomes more fluid when agitated.

Sound waves can measure viscosity on the fly. Though viscosity is the degree to which a fluid resists flow, it is more specifically a measure of a fluid's molecular friction. It can be a useful ...

With the aid of computer modeling, a team from the U.S. Department of Energy’s Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) is investigating the behavior of CO2BOLs when binding to CO 2 emissions.

(Nanowerk News) Using electrical fields to modify the properties of liquids in contact with a surface can be used in several applications, such as electrophoresis, where an electric current can ...
