Rheometry of complex fluids

  • Published : 1999.12.01

Abstract

The difficulties involved in measuring rheological characteristics of complex fluids are discussed. Possible measurement errors, related to the complex nature of the sample, are reviewed. They are explained in terms of the various physical and chemical mechanisms that can cause them. This leads to possible strategies and techniques for avoiding measurement errors and for obtaining useful structural information from rheological experiments on complex materials. Finally, future evolutions in rheometry are discussed.
