Introduction

Analysis of the core content of the standard

Measurement principle and technical characteristics

The standard adopts the single-cylinder rotational viscometer to measure the viscosity through the torque generated by the constant rotation of the rotor in the liquid. The key technical parameters include:

  • Measuring range: 0.02-60,000Pa·s (covering low-viscosity resins to high-viscosity melts)
  • Fluid type: Newtonian/non-Newtonian fluid (shear rate must be specified)
  • Temperature control: ±0.2℃ constant temperature accuracy (20-100℃ gradient recommended)

Instrument Selection Guide

Viscometer Type Torque Range (μN·m) Applicable Viscosity (Pa·s) Typical Rotor
L Type 67.3 0.02-200 L1-L4
R Type 718.7 1-10,000 R1-R7
H(A) Type 5,749.6 50-60,000 R1-R7

Actual Application Case

When measuring epoxy resin, an R-type viscometer with an R3 rotor was selected. The viscosity was measured at a speed of 20r/min and was 4.25Pa·s, which meets the standard requirement of 45-95% of the measuring range.


Key control points of operation

  1. Bubble elimination: The rotor is immersed at a 45° angle and ultrasonically degassed
  2. Immersion depth: The rotor mark line must be completely immersed (>10mm from the bottom of the cup)
  3. Stable reading: Thixotropic samples need to record the time-viscosity curve

Technology evolution analysis

Compared with the old version of the standard, GB/T40280-2021 has the following major improvements:

  • Newly added automated measurement requirements for digital viscometer
  • Clarified the shear rate dependence of non-Newtonian fluids
  • Extended high temperature test to 100°C (requires the use of a telescopic sleeve)
