Executive summary:

This study is used to measure the viscosity in a liquid product by a rotational viscometer. The measurement is performed under different temperature conditions and the apparent viscosities are measured.

The torque required to turn an object in a fluid is a function of the viscosity of that fluid, on this mean is based rotational viscometer function.

The purpose of this study is to determinate the viscosity of Printcat 508 by a Brookfield Viscometer under different temperature steps, because is one of the most important factors that can have an effect on the behavior of a material, maintained a constant rotational speed of the cylindrical spindle while it is submerged in the product at a constant temperature.
