noun
The state of being viscous.
Near-synonym: thickness
A quantity expressing the magnitude of internal friction in a fluid, as measured by the force per unit area resisting uniform flow.
The microcannon was seen moving at about a micron per second, it was about 15 microns long, and the high speed photograph was done in water (density of 1 kg/L, viscosity of about 0.001 pascal seconds).
Aquafaba was recovered from 10 commercial canned chickpea products and correlations among aquafaba composition, density, viscosity and foaming properties were investigated. Proton NMR was used to characterize aquafaba composition before and after ultrafiltration through membranes with different molecular weight cut offs (MWCOs of 3, 10, or 50 kDa).
A tendency to prolong interpersonal encounters.
