Multiple Effects of the Second Fluid on Suspension Viscosity

Previous research has shown that adding a small amount of a second immiscible fluid to particulate suspension can result in a significant influence on viscosity. In this study, the effects of the second fluid addition over a small dosage range on the rheological properties of particle suspension wer...

description Previous research has shown that adding a small amount of a second immiscible fluid to particulate suspension can result in a significant influence on viscosity. In this study, the effects of the second fluid addition over a small dosage range on the rheological properties of particle suspension were investigated. As the dosage of the second fluid was increased, the viscosity and yield stress initially decreased then increased and finally decreased again. The microstructure of the suspension was observed using a confocal laser scanning microscope (CLSM) and showed three different states with the increasing dosage of the second fluid: a dispersive sate, cluster state and cell state in sequence. The presence of these states interpreted the non-monotonic trend of viscosity and yield stress in the suspensions.
