Plastics - Resins in the liquid state or as emulsions or dispersions - Determination of apparent viscosity using a single cylinder type rotational viscometer method (ISO 2555:2018)

This document specifies a method of determining apparent viscosity of resins in a liquid state using a
single cylinder type rotational viscometer.
The method can be used for viscosity measurements in the range from 0,02 Pa ⋅ s to 60 000 Pa ⋅ s.
This document is applicable to both Newtonian and non-Newtonian liquids and the measured apparent
viscosity depends on the velocity gradient to which the liquids are subjected during the measurement.

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out
through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical
committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International
organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.
ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of
electrotechnical standardization.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular the different approval criteria needed for the
different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the
editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www .iso .org/directives).
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of
patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. Details of
any patent rights identified during the development of the document will be in the Introduction and/or
on the ISO list of patent declarations received (see www .iso .org/patents).
Any trade name used in this document is information given for the convenience of users and does not
constitute an endorsement.

This document was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 61, Plastics, Subcommittee SC 5, Physical-
chemical properties.
This third edition cancels and replaces the second edition (ISO 2555:1989), which has been technically
revised. The main changes compared to the previous edition are as follows:
a) the name of the equipment has been changed to “single cylinder type rotational viscometer” and
the method of determination of viscosity is described with more general terms to avoid reference
to specific brand names;
b) the commercially available main models and spindles have been summarized;
c) digital type viscometer has been added;
d) the accuracy of test method has been added;
e) the calibration method has been added.

Introduction
A rotational viscometer is composed of a spindle, a torque measuring device and a spring. There are
three types of rotational viscometers with regard to difference of the spindle:
a) single cylinder type (used in this document, i.e. ISO 2555);
[2]
b) coaxial cylinder type (used in ISO 3219 );
[2]
c) cone-plate type (used in ISO 3219 ).
Single cylinder type rotational viscometers measure viscosity under non-constant shear rate. Coaxial
cylinder type and cone-plate type instruments measure viscosity under constant shear rate.
When using a single cylinder type instrument, the measured viscosity is relative to measuring
conditions. Conditions are therefore intended to be specified for viscosity measurements.
For Newtonian fluids, the viscosity value remains the same even if different viscosity measuring
methods from this document and ISO 3219 are used.
With non-Newtonian fluids the measured viscosity changes depending on shear rate. The viscosity
determined using different measuring methods such as methods from this document and ISO 3219
therefore may differ from each other, depending on shear rates used during measurements.
The Brookfield method has contributed a lot to determination of liquid viscosity. With its simple
measuring low-cost equipment, the principles underlying the Brookfield technique still remain an
important element in determination of viscosity of liquids.
This document is largely based on the Brookfield method established in 1989. However, some of the
instruments mentioned in the previous edition of this document have long been discontinued. Moreover,
although analogue (or the so-called “dial”) type was the predominant viscometer type at that time, the
use has now shifted to digital viscometers in the recent years, increasing the need for this document to
be revised.
[1]
The terms and standards introduced in this new edition are based on ISO 1652 .
Currently, digital viscometer has become the mainstream. However, analogue (or dial) viscometer is
still used and cannot be removed from the method. This document allows the use of both analogue (or
dial) viscometer and digital viscometer.

1 Scope
This document specifies a method of determining apparent viscosity of resins in a liquid state using a
single cylinder type rotational viscometer.
The method can be used for viscosity measurements in the range from 0,02 Pa ⋅ s to 60 000 Pa ⋅ s.
This document is applicable to both Newtonian and non-Newtonian liquids and the measured apparent
viscosity depends on the velocity gradient to which the liquids are subjected during the measurement.
2 Normative references
There are no normative references in this document.
3 Terms and definitions
For the purposes of this document, the following terms and definitions apply.
ISO and IEC maintain terminological databases for use in standardization at the following addresses:
— IEC Electropedia: available at http: //www .electropedia .org/

3.1
single cylinder type rotational viscometer
apparatus that determines viscosity by measuring the torque acting on a cylinder or a disc surface
rotating in laminar flow condition at constant angular velocity
3.2
spindle
rotational symmetric object in the form of a cylinder or disc connected to a vertically rotating shaft
3.3
apparent viscosity
viscosity of liquids/fluids determined from the measured torque using predetermined calibration table
Note 1 to entry: For non-Newtonian fluids the apparent viscosity depends on the shear rate. With these types of
viscometer, the velocity gradient is not the same for every point of the spindle. Thus, for a non-Newtonian fluid,
the result is not strictly the true “viscosity at a known velocity gradient” and therefore is conventionally called
the apparent viscosity.
4 Principle
4.1 General
A rotational symmetric spindle is driven at constant rotational speed in the liquid being measured.

ISO 2555:2018(E)

The resistance exerted by the fluid on the spindle, which depends on the viscosity of the liquid, creates
a torque which is measured by a suitable device.
The apparent viscosity measured using a single cylinder type rotational viscometer is obtained
by multiplying the torque readout with a coefficient which depends on the rotational speed and
characteristics of the spindle. With digital viscometers, viscosity is displayed by setting a certain
rotational speed and entering the correct spindle number.
This method applies to Newtonian and non-Newtonian matter.
