Procedure
- Immerse dip cup with upper rim below the surface of the liquid
- Simultaneously with vertical withdrawal of cup, start stop-watch

- For evaluation purposes carry out three measurements
- The average value of these three measurements is taken as the efflux time
Knowledge
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.
