  2. Thickened fluids - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thickened_fluids

    0 – Thin liquids: Unthickened, such as water or juice. Common thin liquids include coffee, tea, clear broth, clear juice, skim milk, 2% milk, and whole milk. 1 – Slightly thick (between 9 and 6 ml pour out of a 10ml syringe in 10 seconds) 2 – Mildly thick (between 6 and 2 ml pour out) 3 – Moderately thick (2 or less ml pour out)

  3. Thickening agent - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thickening_agent

    Potato starch slurry Roux. A thickening agent or thickener is a substance which can increase the viscosity of a liquid without substantially changing its other properties. Edible thickeners are commonly used to thicken sauces, soups, and puddings without altering their taste; thickeners are also used in paints, inks, explosives, and cosmetics.

  4. Dilatant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dilatant

    Suspensions of similarly charged particles dispersed in a liquid electrolyte are stabilized through an effect described by the Helmholtz double layer model. The model has two layers. The first layer is the charged surface of the particle, which creates an electrostatic field that affects the ions in the electrolyte.

  5. List of viscosities - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_viscosities

    For liquid, the dynamic viscosity is usually in the range of 0.001 to 1 Pascal-second, or 1 to 1000 centiPoise. The density is usually on the order of 1000 kg/m^3, i.e. that of water. Consequently, if a liquid has dynamic viscosity of n centiPoise, and its density is not too different from that of water, then its kinematic viscosity is around n ...

  6. Triethylaluminium - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Triethylaluminium

    Triethylaluminium thickened with polyisobutylene is used as an incendiary weapon, as a pyrophoric alternative to napalm; e.g., in the M74 clip holding four rockets for the M202A1 launchers. [15] In this application it is known as TPA, for thickened pyrotechnic agent or thickened pyrophoric agent. The usual amount of the thickener is 6%.

  7. Heavy liquid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heavy_liquid

    A heavy liquid is a solution or liquid chemical substance with a high density and a relatively low viscosity. Heavy liquids are often used for determination of density in mineralogy, for density gradient centrifugation and for separating mixtures .

  8. Reduction (cooking) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reduction_(cooking)

    In cooking, reduction is the process of thickening and intensifying the flavor of a liquid mixture, such as a soup, sauce, wine or juice, by simmering or boiling. [1] Reduction is performed by simmering or boiling a liquid, such as a stock, fruit or vegetable juice, wine, vinegar or sauce, until the desired concentration is reached by ...

  9. Correction fluid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Correction_fluid

    A correction fluid (or correction liquid) is an opaque, usually white fluid applied to paper to mask errors in text. Once dried, it can be handwritten or handdrawn upon. Once dried, it can be handwritten or handdrawn upon.
