Description

A viscometer (also called viscosimeter) is an instrument used to measure the viscosity of a suspension. The test sand from Normensand GmbH offers the possibility to compare the consistency of cement paste, cement mortar, plaster or other suspensions. The viscometer tests of cement paste or mortar generates knowledge about workability characteristics, pumpability, the temperature development or the temperature sensitivity, the stiffening behavior and the mode of action of admixture or additives. The Viscometer-Test Sand is uniformly composed and usually used for the production control in laboratories. Common mix designs for the tests are: 1000 g Viscometer – test sand, 662 g cement, 331 g water /// Grain size distribution: 0.08 – 1.00 mm
