Features
The byko-visc CP Cone and Plate viscometer allows for the precise determination of the absolute viscosity of materials using minimal sample sizes. With built-in temperature control and constant shear rates throughout the whole sample it can measure and predict the performance of your samples closer to the conditions in your manufacturing or application process (E.g. Spreading of paint on a wall or flowing of a polymer melt inside a pipe). The byko-visc CP combines the ability to measure low shear applications such as automotive clear coats and high shear applications such as wall paints in one instrument without a loss in accuracy. The desired viscosity ranges can be customized according to different use cases by a selection of ten (separately available) cones. The byko-visc CP Cone and Plate viscometer offers a practical solution for any QC or R&D lab requiring quick, easy and reliable testing of the behaviour of a liquid under different conditions.

Guide to Viscosity Measurement
Viscosity is an important property of liquids to determine how they flow, spread, or level under certain conditions. It can be defined as a liquid’s internal resistance to flow. Being able to measure the viscosity will allow to predict the behavior in a process or an application. When applying a paint by roll application the paint viscosity will strongly influence the amount of paint applied per surface area, thereby determining both yield and hiding power. It is crucial for liquid products to undergo a viscosity measurement in incoming and outgoing QC.
