Accessories
The sections below briefly describe the Discovery Series rheometer accessories.
Bicone Interfacial Accessory
The bicone interfacial accessory is mainly used to determine the viscosity of the interface between two liq-
uid phases. The stator is a circular cup with removable lid, the geometry is a thin, biconical disc. For
chemical inertness, and to reduce the meniscus effect, the cup and lid are constructed from polytetraflouro-
ethylene, PTFE, and the geometry from stainless steel.
