Rheological Tests | Process Variables | Recorded Outcome |
---|---|---|
Steady rate sweep | Shear rate(s−1): 0.1 to 500 | Flow curve, viscosity, shear stress, shear-thinning behavior |
Amplitude sweep | Shear strain (%): 0.1 to 100 | Storage modulus (G’) and loss modulus (G”), loss tangent (tan) |
3iTT | Time(s)/Shear rate (s−1): 0–60/1, 61–65/100, 66–185/1 | Recovery rate of the hydrogel |
