Viscometer and rheometer: What is the difference?
A rheometer can show changes in viscosity under various conditions rather than a single viscosity.
The Discovery Core Rheometer is the first system to provide extensive measurements of viscosity and viscoelasticity with simple operability. New feature: The RheoGuide user interface allows operation from a touchscreen, providing guidance, visualization, and verification at each step. 【Discover Insights Beyond Viscosity】 Viscometers only report a single viscosity value within a limited range, while the Core Rheometer captures a complete viscosity profile, representing material behavior under all relevant conditions. Complex fluids such as suspensions, emulsions, gels, pastes, and slurries are non-Newtonian fluids, and their viscosity changes depending on the applied shear rate and time. Characterizing the full range of viscosity is crucial for understanding flow behavior under real-world conditions.
