Researchers from NITech, Japan, have recently developed a novel full-field extensional rheo-optical technique that can accurately characterize structural deformations in a complex fluid under ...

Biopharma and food businesses working with proteins now have access to better information about how a type of fluid flow commonly encountered in manufacturing processes can affect the quality of their ...

This is because the plastic is constantly expanding or stretching in those processes. Two polymers may have identical shear flow behavior, but they could exhibit different extensional flow behavior ...
