Dependence of the flow behavior of aqueous suspension of Black Hills bentonite on the concentration and the types of electrolytes was stydied. The flow properties were measured with a Couette-type totational viscometer. On addition of monovalent cations, the apparent viscosity determined from the reproducible flow curves (shear rate vs. shear stress) decreased followed by a rise as the ionic concentration further increased. Addition of multivalent cations (di- and tri-) resulted in the viscosity which increased to a maximum then decreased to a constant value. Anions of different chatges produced essentially the same relationship between viscosity and electrolyte concentration. The flow behavior of the electrolyte-containing suspensions was rationalized in terms of the Derjaguin-Landau-Verwey-Overbeek theory of colloidal stability and the generalized theory of viscosity.

Dependence of the flow behavior of aqueous suspension of Young-Il bentonite on the concentration and the type of electrolytes was studied. Viscosity measurements were made was Rion Viscotester, using No. 3 rotor at 62.5 R. P. M. at 25.deg.C. As electrolyte concentration increased, the apparent viscosity was observed to increase. Changes in viscosity were in general agreement with predicted results based on the Hofmeister sequence and the Schulze-Hardy rule. The observed electrolyte effect on the apparent viscosity was discussed in terms of the Verwey-Overbeek theory.

The rheological properties of sugar and cocoa particle suspensions in cocoa butter under molten condition were analyzed with Haake rotationary viscometer. Both suspensions had yield value and showed rheopexy at low shear rate and thixotropy at high shear rate. Flow behaviors of the suspensions were analyzed with modified Casson model. Casson viscosity and yield value increased with increasing the concentration of sugar and cocoa particles. There was an obvious dependence of the Casson viscosity and yield value on the particle size distributions that was represented by the Sauter mean diameter of the particles. Casson viscosity and yield value of cocoa butter-sugar suspension increased with increasing the fineness of sugar particle crystal. With increasing the fineness of cocoa particle a decreasing Casson viscosity of cocoa butter-cocoa particle suspension was achieved, but the yield value did not change significantly with cocoa particle size. Therefore, it was predicted that the best rheological properties of chocolate could be obtained with the combination of coarse ground sugar $(d=36.30{\mu}m)$ and fine ground cocoa particle $(d=14.81{\mu}m)$ within the studied range.

Stable slurries of YSZ in aqueous suspension with added polymer dispersants, namely, poly-methacrylic acid ammonium salt (PMMA), poly-acrylic acid (PAA) and poly-acrylic-co-maleic acid (PAMA), were mixed with the monomolecular dispersants citric acid and oxalic acid. The dispersion properties of the suspension were investigated using PSA, viscosity, sedimentation, and FT-IR. The polymer dispersants and monomolecular dispersants were attached to the YSZ surface by the carboxylic group, as shown by the FTIR results. A stabilized aqueous suspension was obtained when the polymer dispersant and citric acid were mixed and compared to the use of citric acid alone as a dispersant agent. When the polymer dispersant and citric acid were mixed and milled through attrition milling, there was a smaller particle size compared to when the polymer dispersant alone was used as a dispersant agent. This study determined that the particle size of the mixed dispersant was affected by the properties of the monomolecular dispersant and that the stability of the suspension was affected by the polymer dispersant. However, when slurries of YSZ were mixed with oxalic acid, the particle bridging behavior was the result of the high degree of viscosity and the small sedimentation height.

A theoretical model is proposed in order to investigate rheological behavior of bubble suspension with large deformation. Theoretical constitutive equations for dilute bubble suspensions are derived by applying a deformation theory of ellipsoidal droplet [1] to a phenomenological suspension theory [2]. The rate of deformation tensor within the bubble and the time evolution of interface tensor are predicted by applying the proposed constitutive equations, which have two free fitting parameters. The transient and steady rheological properties of dilute bubble suspensions are studied for several capillary numbers (Ca) under simple shear flow and uniaxial elongational flow fields. The retraction force of the bubble caused by the interfacial tension increases as bubbles undergo deformation. The transient and steady relative viscosity decreases as Ca increases. The normal stress difference (NSD) under the simple shear has the largest value when Ca is around 1 and the ratio Of the first NSD to the second NSD has the value of 3/4 for large Ca but 2 for small Ca. In the uniaxial elongational flow, the elongational viscosity is three times as large as the shear viscosity like the Newtonian fluid.

Low Reynolds number, dilute, and surfactant-free bubble suspensions are prepared by mechanical mixing after introducing carbon dioxide bubbles into a Newtonian liquid, polyol. The apparent shear viscosity is measured with a wide-gap parallel plate rheometer by imposing a simple shear flow of capillary numbers(Ca) of the order of $10^{-2}$ ~ $10^{-1}$ and for various gas volume fractions ($\phi$). Effects of capillary numbers and gas volume fractions on the viscosity of polyol foam are investigated. At high capillary number, viscosity of the suspension increases as the gas volume fraction increases, while at low capillary number, the viscosity decreases as the gas volume fraction increases. An empirical constitutive equation that is similar to the Frankel and Acrivos equation is proposed by fitting experimental data. A numerical simulation for deformation of a single bubble suspended in a Newtonian fluid is conducted by using a newly developed two-dimensional numerical code using a finite volume method (FVM). Although the bubble is treated by a circular cylinder in the two dimensional analysis, numerical results are in good agreement with experimental results.

The viscometric technique is used to study the effects of microstructure on the viscosity (viscosity vs. concentration or shear rate) of magnetic particle suspensions. In this characterization, measurement of suspension viscosity is used to obtain the dependence of viscous energy dissipation on microstructural state of dispersions. Microstructural shape effects which are related to particle orientation are then indirectly obtained. Empirical formulas from mean field theory and the Mooney equation, which are applicable at high concentration of magnetic particles, are used to relate viscosity to particle concentration. The validity and physical meaning of these equations are discussed.

Dilute bubble suspensions are prepared by introducing carbon dioxide bubbles into polyol resin. The apparent shear viscosity is measured with a wide gap parallel plate rheometer. A numerical simulation for deformation of a single bubble suspended in a Newtonian fluid is conducted by using a finite volume method (FVM) where multigrid algorithms are incorporated. Transient and steady results of bubble deformation were obtained and were in good agreement with experimental results. At high capillary number, viscosity of the suspension increases as the volume fraction increases, while at low capillary number, the viscosity decreases as the volume fraction increases.
