Thixotropic materials, which become less viscous under stress and return to their original state when stress is removed1, have been used to deliver gel–cell constructs2 and therapeutic agents3 ...

In thixotropic metals such as aluminum or magnesium alloys, solid globular particles are suspended in a liquid matrix. When stirred or deformed, these particles align to lower the material’s ...

Thixotropic materials fill complex molds smoothly, improving the surface finish and structural integrity of final parts. A study on AlCoCrCuFeNi high-entropy alloys found that thixoforming eliminated ...

The thixotropic behavior of the paint was also quantified, enabling a more comprehensive evaluation of the paint’s flow behavior to take place. Additionally, the HAAKE MARS iQ Rheometer’s controlled ...

Ketchup fan? Then you know you’ve got to shake that bottle of your favorite brand before you squeeze it onto your food of choice. Otherwise, you’ll be met with a watery mess followed by some gunky ...

This thixotropic, moderately low viscosity compound has a viscosity of 8,000-12,000 cps at 75°F (~ 23°C). It provides outstanding dimensional stability and superior physical strength properties.

A new method of describing thixotropy in waxy crude oil transported through pipelines is both accurate and more convenient than previous methods.

Common thixotropic fillers include ground silica or plastic fibers, but [Eric]’s choice was wood flour. Wood flour is really just very fine sawdust, and easily obtained from the bag on his ...
