Abstract:
The days of bulky, energy hogging low temperature viscosity baths are over.
Learn how viscometers based on ASTM D7042 can be used to quickly and easily measure your low temperature viscosity samples.
This presentation will include the following key points:
-How to test kinematic viscosity down to -20C without an external chiller
-How tests at -40C and below be automated to maximize throughput
-Tips and tricks for cleaning and maintencae of low temperature viscometers
