Study Notes
What is Rheology?
- Rheology is the study of the flow and deformation of materials under stress.
Materials Studied in Rheology
- Examples of materials studied in rheology include paints, which exhibit non-Newtonian behavior.
Paint Behavior
- Paints do not flow down walls like water because they are non-Newtonian fluids, meaning their viscosity changes in response to stress or pressure.
Biofluids in Rheology
- Examples of biofluids studied in rheology include blood, saliva, and mucus.
Importance of Fluidity Properties
- Knowing the fluidity properties of materials is crucial in rheology because it helps predict their behavior under different conditions, such as stress, pressure, and temperature, which is essential in various industries, including manufacturing, healthcare, and energy.
