Certain kinds of motor oils behave differently. Ideally, an engineer would prefer the oil viscosity to remain the same when the engine is hot as when it is cold. Motor oil includes additives developed ...

Pharmaceutical companies have increasingly focused on developing high-concentration protein therapeutics that enable patients to treat themselves at home by self injection. However, the formulation of ...

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

A physicist proposes that the universe is not empty space, but is a viscous fluid, fueling the expansion and contraction we see.

Researchers shifted the focus to the internal properties of the membrane itself, specifically its viscosity, highlighting its critical role in controlling deformation and dynamics during essential ...

Every fleet owner should know the basics about the viscosity of the lubricants they are using and why the viscosity matters. Fleets—especially mixed ones—require a variety of lubricants. This ranges ...

The properties of the magma inside a volcano affect how an eruption will play out. In particular, the viscosity of this molten rock is a major factor in influencing how hazardous an eruption could be ...

Students will experiment with three different liquids to determine the relative viscosity and flow rate of each liquid. Mount Nyiragongo is a volcano in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, 18 ...
