The purpose of this study was to compare rheological properties of six dental interocclusal recording materials and to investigate the effect of temperature on the rheological properties during setting. Five polyvinylsiloxane materials and one polyether material were investigated in this study. The strorage modulus (G') and the loss factor (tanδ) were measured from 30s after mixing during setti...

The aim of this work was to quantify the effects of psyllium fiber addition to wheat flour at the levels of 0, 1, 2, 3 and 4% on the rheological behavior of the dough. The rheological properties of the dough were investigated using the rheological device, Farinograph. Upon the addition of psyllium fiber, a significant increase in Farinograph water absorption, simultaneously with the increase of...

The aim of this study was to characterize and optimize the different hydrogel formulations of the methanolic root extract of Buchanania lanzan (MEBL) with an objective towards the development of a suitable topical delivery system. The gel formulations were prepared with different concentrations of polymer (Carbopol-940) and 0.5% of the active fraction (ethyl acetate sub-fraction of MEBL). Diffe...

increasing the thermal stability and resistance to bacterial attack (bioresistance) of the potato starch used in the water-based drilling fluid is the aim of this work. four types of potato starch grafted with acrylamide and a mixture of each one with acrylic acid, 2-acrylamido-2-methyl-1-propane sulfuric acid and itaconic acid were synthesized by manganese (iv)-induced redox system at the suit...

in this study, different contents of nano-silica, 2 wt.%, 4 wt.% and 6 wt.%, have been added to bitumen tomodify the physical, mechanical and rheological properties of warm mix asphalt (wma). wma iscontaining 2 wt.% of sasobit (mixture of long-chain hydrocarbons). various quality control tests have beencarried out to characterize the modified bitumen and wma. the rheological investigations show...

Various cellulose-ionic liquid solutions were measured with a rotational plate-andplate rheometer and a Capillary Break-up Extensional Rheometer (CaBER). Comparison of the shear and extensional rheological properties showed good agreement in some cases. The CaBER, however, seems to be more sensitive to small variations in solute composition. INTRODUCTION Since almost a decade now, nonderivatizi...

The mixing of polymer matrices with nanoparticles to form composite materials has been an area of great research interest. The mechanical and rheological properties of such composite materials are directly related to the properties of the matrix polymer, the properties of the nano-filler, the strength and nature of the interfacial interactions between the polymer matrix and the filler, and fina...

To understand the effects of adding different gums (guar, xanthan, and locust bean gums) on naked barley flour (NBF), the rheological and pasting properties of NBF-gum mixtures were measured at different gum concentrations (0, 0.3, and 0.6% w/w). Steady shear rheological properties were determined by rheological parameters for power law and Casson models. All samples showed a clear trend of she...

Rheological properties of waxy barley flour (WBF) dispersions mixed with various gums (carboxyl methyl celluleose, guar gum, gum arabic, konjac gum, locust bean gum, tara gum, and xanthan gum) at different gum concentrations were examined in steady and dynamic shear. WBF-gum mixture samples showed a clear trend of shear-thinning behavior and had a non-Newtonian nature with yield stress. Rheolog...
