Abstract

This paper discusses the practical application of a bucket vane viscometer in the characterization of novel nanofibrillated cellulose suspensions. Specifically, we use two different grades of nanocellulose, Masuko grinded and TEMPO oxidized ones. We work at the consistency range of 1–2.3 % w/w. We find, in agreement to more accurate rheometer based experiments, that both these materials behave in a highly non-linear manner. Thus, as we discuss in this paper, using a wide gap device necessitates the use of a correction algorithm in the conversion of the angular velocity to global shear rate to access the materials intrinsic, geometry independent, flow behavior. Furthermore, from the application viewpoint, we find that the classically measured low shear rate viscosity is not a good quantity to characterize these materials.
