    How would you measure antibacterial gel?

    • @ElcometerOfficialChannel

      Thank you for your comment.
      As antibacterial gel is generally thicker in its nature, it is unlikely that a Flow Cup or Dip Cup would be suitable.
      Alternatively you could use an Elcometer 2290 Daniel Flow Gauge as a comparator.

      Hi,
      This would depend on the type of soap and its viscosity. Please get in touch with support at support@elcometer.com and we can help you with this question.

    K and C are constants given in the following table for type Zahn Cup and Shell Cup. then what about the Lory LCH and Fikmar types?

    • @ElcometerOfficialChannel
      @ElcometerOfficialChannel  3 года назад +1

      Thank you for your comment.
      The Lory Viscosity Cup does not have a constant and does not conform to a Standard, whilst the constants of the Frikmar Cups are defined in ASTM D 1200 and ISO 2431.

    Is negative cSt possible?

  • @sophiakassandrayvonnejamer1373

    Does lower cSt mean higher viscosity?

    Can we measure viscosity of whipping cream with this cup?

    • @ElcometerOfficialChannel
      @ElcometerOfficialChannel  3 года назад

      Thank you for your comment.
      Whipping cream does not flow enough to be used successfully with a dip cup or flow cup. We recommend a rotational viscometer.

    How do I test for starch for corrugation of paper board

    • @ElcometerOfficialChannel
      @ElcometerOfficialChannel  4 года назад

      Thank you for your comment.
      Whilst we are not specialists in the paper industry, if this starch is a homogeneous liquid, with no solids contained in the solution, then it may be possible to use a flow or dip cup to measure its viscosity.
      Check our website for the range of measurable viscosities of each cup, and if you know the approximate viscosity of your starch, choose a cup that would take 60-100 seconds to reach that value.
      Elcometer Dip and Flow Cups: www.elcometer.com/en/laboratory-physical-test-equipment/viscosity-cups.html
      The chart on page 4 of this PDF takes the time of a test with each viscosity cup size and converts it to centistokes: www.elcometer.com/images/stories/PDFs/Datasheets/English/viscosity_cups.pdf

    How to measure 60% chili sauce viscosity?

    • @ElcometerOfficialChannel
      @ElcometerOfficialChannel  4 года назад

      Thank you for your comment.
      Does the chilli sauce have seeds in it? If so, the seeds may get stuck in the hole of the dip cup causing measurement issues. If the sauce has seeds in we suggest using an Elcometer 2290 Daniel Flow Gauge instead: www.elcometer.com/en/coating-inspection/laboratory-physical-test-equipment/flow-gauges/elcometer-2290-daniel-flow-gauge.html
      If the sauce does not have seeds in it, then you should be able to submerge a suitable dip cup in it to measure the viscosity.
