  2. Thickened fluids - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thickened_fluids

    0 – Thin liquids: Unthickened, such as water or juice. Common thin liquids include coffee, tea, clear broth, clear juice, skim milk, 2% milk, and whole milk. 1 – Slightly thick (between 9 and 6 ml pour out of a 10ml syringe in 10 seconds) 2 – Mildly thick (between 6 and 2 ml pour out) 3 – Moderately thick (2 or less ml pour out)

  3. Thickening agent - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thickening_agent

    Potato starch slurry Roux. A thickening agent or thickener is a substance which can increase the viscosity of a liquid without substantially changing its other properties. Edible thickeners are commonly used to thicken sauces, soups, and puddings without altering their taste; thickeners are also used in paints, inks, explosives, and cosmetics.

  4. List of viscosities - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_viscosities

    For liquid, the dynamic viscosity is usually in the range of 0.001 to 1 Pascal-second, or 1 to 1000 centiPoise. The density is usually on the order of 1000 kg/m^3, i.e. that of water. Consequently, if a liquid has dynamic viscosity of n centiPoise, and its density is not too different from that of water, then its kinematic viscosity is around n ...

  5. Viscosity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Viscosity

    Viscosity is a measure of a fluid's rate-dependent resistance to a change in shape or to movement of its neighboring portions relative to one another. [1] For liquids, it corresponds to the informal concept of thickness; for example, syrup has a higher viscosity than water. [2]

  6. List of syrups - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_syrups

    This is a list of notable syrups.In cooking, a syrup is a condiment that is a thick, viscous liquid consisting primarily of a solution of sugar in water, containing a large amount of dissolved sugars but showing little tendency to deposit crystals.

  7. Dilatant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dilatant

    Suspensions of similarly charged particles dispersed in a liquid electrolyte are stabilized through an effect described by the Helmholtz double layer model. The model has two layers. The first layer is the charged surface of the particle, which creates an electrostatic field that affects the ions in the electrolyte.

  8. Aircraft deicing fluid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aircraft_deicing_fluid

    Deicing a Boeing 737 with Type I fluid A layer of Type IV anti-icing fluid. De-icing fluids come in a variety of types, and are typically composed of ethylene glycol (EG) or propylene glycol (PG), along with other ingredients such as thickening agents, surfactants (wetting agents), corrosion inhibitors, colors, and UV-sensitive dye.

  9. Thixotropy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thixotropy

    Mānuka honey is an example of a thixotropic material.. Thixotropy is a time-dependent shear thinning property. Certain gels or fluids that are thick or viscous under static conditions will flow (become thinner, less viscous) over time when shaken, agitated, shear-stressed, or otherwise stressed (time-dependent viscosity).
