1 Examples of Newtonian Fluid 2 EXAMPLES OF NON NEWTONIAN FLUID	1 Castor oil Chloroform Ethanol Olive oil Water 2 Emulsion Suspension Ointment
Types of Non - Newtonian	1. Plastic flow 2. Pseudo - plastic flow 3. Dilatant flow
Also known as consistency curves or flow curves	Rheogram
Formed when the active molecules saturate the surface of the water	Micelles
1 Potential located at the sheer plane 2 The potential at the solid surface due to the potential determining ion, is the electrothermodynamic (Nernst) potential, E	1 Electrokinetic or Zeta Potential 2 Nernst and Zeta Potentials
Substance that lowers the surface tension of the medium in which it is dissolved	Surface Active Agent
Measuring Surface and Interfacial Tension METHODS	1 Du Nouy Ring Method (Pierre Lecomte du Nouy) 2 Capillary Rise Method
The narrower the capillary tube, the ___ the water level	higher
Methods Used in Particle Size Determination	1. Optical Microscopy 2 Sieve Analysis 3 Sedimentation
Apparatus used in sedimentation	Andreasen apparatus
Height of voltage pulse is proportional to the volume of particle	.
1 Reduction of viscosity with the increasing rate of shear and example 2 Increase viscosity or resistance to flow with increasing rate of shear and example	1 Pseudo - plastic or “Shear - thinning” ex. tragacanth, sodium alginate, methylcellulose and Na CMC, toothpaste 2 Dilatant Flow or “Shear - Thickening” ex. deflocculated suspension
Defined as rheological phenomenon in which the flowing behavior of the material occurs after the applied stress reaches a critical value or yield value and then behaves as Newtonian flow	Plastic flow or Bingham Bodies Ex. Flocculated suspension Ointment Paste Gel
“An isothermal and comparatively slow recovery, on standing of a material, of a consistency lost through shearing”	Thixotropy
A phenomenon in which a solid forms a gel more readily when gently shaken or otherwise sheared than when allowed to form the gel while the material is kept at rest	Rheopexy
Greater thixotropy, the __ rate of settling	lower
