About the introduction of how to choose the rotor or adjust the speed of the viscometer 1.
The performance index of the viscometer must meet the requirements of the national metrological verification regulations
.
Periodic verification should be carried out for the instruments in use, and intermediate self-checks should be carried out to confirm that their measurement performance is qualified and the coefficient error is within the allowable range, otherwise accurate data cannot be obtained
.
Second, the viscometer pays special attention to the temperature of the liquid to be measured
.
Many users ignore this point and think that the temperature difference does not matter.
Our experiments have proved that when the temperature deviation is 0.
5°C, the viscosity value deviation of some liquids exceeds 5%, and the temperature deviation has a great influence on the viscosity.
The temperature increases and the viscosity decreases
.
Therefore, special attention should be paid to keep the temperature of the liquid to be measured constant around the specified temperature point, and the measurement should not exceed 0.
1 °C
.
Third, the choice of viscometer measuring container (outer cylinder)
.
For the dual-cylinder rotational viscometer, read the instrument manual carefully, and different rotors (inner cylinders) match the corresponding outer cylinders, otherwise the measurement results will deviate greatly
.
For a single-cylinder rotational viscometer, the actual measurement requires that the inner diameter of the outer cylinder, that is, the measuring container, is not less than a certain size
.
4.
Correctly select the rotor or adjust the speed so that the displayed value is between 20 and 90 grids
.
This type of instrument adopts the dial and pointer method for reading, and its stability and reading deviation are combined with 0.
5 grids.
If the reading is too small, such as around 5 grids, the relative error caused is more than 10%.
Reading at 50 divisions, the relative error can be reduced to 1%
.
If the indicated value is above 90 grids, the torque generated by the hairspring will be too large, which will easily cause creep and damage the hairspring, so the rotor and speed should be selected correctly
.
5.
Frequency correction of viscometer
.
The nominal frequency of domestic instruments is 50Hz, and the current power supply frequency in China is also 50Hz.
We use a frequency meter to test the variability of less than 0.
5%, so the general measurement does not require frequency correction
.
However, for some instruments in Japan and Europe, the nominal frequency is 60Hz, and frequency correction must be performed, otherwise a 20% error will occur.
The correction formula is: actual viscosity = indicated viscosity × nominal frequency ÷ actual frequency 6.
Viscometer rotor immersed in liquid Depth and bubble effects
.
The rotational viscometer has strict requirements on the depth of the rotor immersed in the liquid, and must be made according to the requirements of the manual (some double-barrel instruments have strict requirements on the amount of liquid tested, which must be measured with a graduated cylinder)
.
In the process of immersing the rotor in the liquid, there are often bubbles, and most of them will float and disappear after the rotor rotates for a period of time.
The existence of the bubbles will bring a large deviation to the measurement data, so it is an effective method to immerse the rotor slowly by tilting
.
7.
Cleaning of viscometer rotor
.
The rotor (including the outer cylinder) used for measurement should be clean and free of dirt.
Generally, it should be cleaned in time after measurement, especially after measuring paint and adhesive
.
Pay attention to the cleaning method.
It can be soaked in a suitable organic solvent.
Never use a metal knife or other hard scraping, because serious scratches on the surface of the rotor will cause deviations in the measurement results
.
Eight, viscometer other issues that need attention
.
1.
Most of the instruments need to be leveled.
After replacing the rotor and adjusting the height of the rotor, pay attention to the leveling problem at any time during the measurement process, otherwise it will cause reading deviation or even impossible to read
.
2.
Some instruments need to be installed with a protective frame.
Read the instructions carefully and install them according to the regulations, otherwise it will cause reading deviation
.
3.
Determine whether it is an approximate Newtonian fluid.
For non-Newtonian fluids, the rotor, speed and rotation time should be specified after selection, so as to avoid misunderstanding that the instrument is inaccurate
.
The above is the relevant introduction about how to choose the rotor or adjust the speed of the viscometer.
Although the rotational viscometer has a simple structure and is easy to use, if it is not used correctly, a qualified instrument cannot obtain accurate measurement results, which will affect the product quality.
Hope Help everyone
