3、dence of apparent viscosity ofpaints,inks and related liquid materials on temperature.Thefirst method uses a standard rotational viscometer with con-centric cylinder geometry running at a fixed rotational speed asthe temperature is increased or decreased.The second methoduses a rotational viscometer
