evaluation of viscosity numbers
evaluation of viscosity numbers
(OP)
10wt oil is closer to the viscosity of water and 90wt gear oil is closer to solid. What then is the number for viscosity when the substance is no longer fluid and becomes solid.

MATERIAL VISCOSITY (centipoises)
Water @ 70° F 1-5
Blood or Kerosene 10
Anti-Freeze or Ethylene Glycol 15
Motor Oil SAE 10 or Corn Syrup 50-100
Motor Oil SAE 30 or Maple Syrup 150-200
Motor Oil SAE 40 or Castor Oil 250-500
Motor Oil SAE 60 or Glycerin 1,000-2,000
Karo Corn Syrup or Honey 2,000-3,000
Blackstrap Molasses 5,000-10,000
Hershey Chocolate Syrup 10,000-25,000
Heinz Ketchup or French's Mustard* 50,000-70,000
Tomato Paste or Peanut Butter 150,000-200,000
Crisco Shortening or Lard 1,000,000-2,000,000
Caulking Compound 5,000,000-10,000,000
Window Putty 100,000,000
The metric version is centi-stokes (cSt).

Both centipoise and centistokes are metric. CentiPoise is dynamic viscosity and CentiStoke is kinematic viscostiy. One related to the other by the fluid density.

Glass 1.0E+40
I've heard that glass is a fluid, which means that Avogadro was on the low side
Then there's this ...
