Abstract:Summary
The rotational viscometer having a variable speed drive can be used to give a viscosity curve expressed in fundamental units.
Two viscosity curves which will characterise the consistency of a pharmaceutical cream base, at a given temperature, can be obtained in a reasonable time for control purposes.
The consistency of autoclaved emulsions prepared with and without bentonite has been determined quantitatively and the results tabulated.
Emulsions prepared without bentonite showed shear‐rate thinning b… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
