Miсrovisсometer LOVIS 2000 M allows to determine the dynamic viscosity values of the samples. The viscometer is based on the Geppler principle – the principle of the rolling ball in the capillary filled with a liquid sample. Viscometer measures the time during which the solid ball travels a certain distance along the capillary, placed at different angles to the horizone. The study results are presented as dynamic viscosity in standard international units mPa⋅s.
