| Abstract: | An instrument commonly employed to measure the viscosity of truly viscous liquids was tested to determine its applicability for evaluating consistencies of enamel slips which are solid suspensions in a water medium. Within wide limits of specific gravity differences and variations in set resulting from electrolyte additions, the Brookfield vis-cosimeter afforded comparable information with the pick-up and slump tests employed as references. |
