Nowadays a wide variety of different accessories used in combination with rotational rheomters are available. Such techniques range from rheo-optical methods to applying external pressures and electrical or magnetical fields. In addition systems transforming the rotational movement of the rheometer allow investigations on extensional rheology or tribology with a rheometer. INTRODUCTION Rheologi...

Using a strain-controlled rheometer, rhelogical characterization of carbopol 940 has been made in steady shear and start-up flow fields. In this study, aqueous carbopol 940 solutions with different concentrations were used to provide a fundamental information in application of pharmaceutical and cosmetic areas.
