Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out
through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical
committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International
organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.
ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of
electrotechnical standardization.

5 Measuring principles
5.1 General
There are rotational tests, oscillatory tests and various step tests. The different tests can be combined
with one another.
These can be carried out using various measuring types: controlled deformation (CD), controlled rate
(CR) or controlled stress (CS).

NOTE Degrees (°) are commonly used in practice as the unit for the loss angle δ. The following conversion
applies: 2π rad = 360°.
In the case of ideal elastic behaviour (in accordance with Hooke’s law), the loss angle has a value
of δ = 0°, i.e. the shear strain and shear stress are always in phase. In the case of ideal viscous behaviour
(in accordance with Newton’s law), the loss angle has a value of δ = π/2 = 90°, i.e. the shear stress curve
is 90° ahead of the shear strain curve.
Using Hooke’s elasticity law, the complex shear modulus G* and its absolute value G* can be calculated
using Formulae (7) and (8):

6 Measuring assembly
6.1 General
The rheological properties are investigated using a measuring system consisting of a measuring device
(viscometer or rheometer) and a measuring geometry (e.g. cone-plate).
The viscometer can only measure the viscosity in rotation (viscometry). This means that the viscosity
function of the sample can be determined as a function of the parameters of time, temperature, shear
rate, shear stress and others such as pressure.
With a rheometer, it is possible to carry out all basic tests in rotation and oscillation (rheometry).
Alongside the viscosity function, the viscoelastic properties can be determined, e.g. shear storage
modulus and shear loss modulus.
6.3.1 General
A measuring geometry consists of two parts that form a sample chamber where the sample is located. A
measuring geometry consists of a rotor and a stator or of two rotors.
The measuring geometry shall be selected in such a way that its dimensions are suitable for the expected
viscosity range and viscoelastic properties of the sample. With regard to its gap width, the measuring
geometry shall also be selected in such a way that possible heterogeneities in the sample (e.g. particles,
droplets, air bubbles) are considered. The magnitude of these heterogeneities is to be determined in
advance using suitable methods (e.g. microscopy, laser diffraction, sieving or determination of fineness
of grind).
The absolute and relative measuring geometries of a rotational viscometer or rheometer are described
below.
Coaxial cylinders, double-gap and cone-plate measuring geometries are absolute measuring geometries.
All the others are relative measuring geometries.
In the case of an absolute measuring geometry, the flow profile within the complete sample can be
calculated exactly, regardless of its flow properties. This applies under the condition of laminar flow,
and without slip (wall slip or slip between flow layers).
In the case of relative measuring geometries apart from plate-plate measuring geometries, calculation
of the flow profile is only possible if the flow properties of the sample are known.
In practice, approximations are also used for absolute measuring geometries and thus corrections are
carried out. Derivations of the basic flows for the absolute measuring geometries are presented in A.2.
6.3.2.1.1
(standards.iteh.ai)
Description of the measuring geometry
The measuring geometry consists of a measuring cup (i.e. the outer cylinder) and a measuring bob
ISO 3219-2:2021
(i.e. the inner cylinder with shaft, as shown in Figure 5). The measuring bob can serve as a rotor and
https://standards.iteh.ai/catalog/standards/sist/4d71b490-7736-4026-8bec-
the measuring cup as a stator (Searle principle), or vice versa (Couette principle); see Figure 6. If not
0f8fa36629fa/iso-3219-2-2021
indicated otherwise, the Searle principle is assumed below.
Key
1 measuring cup (outer cylinder)
2 measuring bob (inner cylinder)
3 sample chamber
The flow profile occurring in the measuring gap of the cylinder measuring geometry is calculated
according to A.3.2. The measuring gap is the space between the shell surface of the measuring bob with
a radius R1 and the lateral surface of the measuring cup with a radius R2 and the same length L; see
Figure 7.
Calculations of the shear stress τ and shear rate γ are ideally based on representative values that do
not occur at the inner radius of the outer cylinder R2 or outer radius of the inner cylinder R1 of the
measuring geometry but at a particular geometric position within the measuring gap. τrep is defined as
the arithmetic mean of the shear stresses at the outer cylinder τ1 and inner cylinder τ2, which is a good
approximation for the given ratio of radii (δ ≤ 1,1). For larger values and thus for relative measuring
geometries see 6.3.3.2.
