Breakdown of Thixotropic Structure as Function of Time
Abstract
Measurements of the thixotropic breakdown of structure with time of agitation were performed at different rates of shear on a number of pigment suspensions and on various oils in a rotational viscometer. The product of rate of breakdown in thixotropic structure and time of agitation at any rate of shear was found to be a constant for each material. It is called ``the time coefficient of thixotropic breakdown'' and is independent of the rate of shear, which is applied to agitate the sample. The time coefficient of thixotropic breakdown is measured in absolute units, having the dimensions of viscosity (dynes sec./cm2). The equilibrium time—the time necessary to break the thixotropic structure down to its minimum at a specified rate of shear—was also found to be independent of the rate of shear applied while agitating.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
