Description
Our Anton Paar viscometer is situated within an argon fed glovebox, allowing inert measurements of electrolyte viscosity to be taken. The Lovis 2000 ME is a rolling-ball viscometer which measures the rolling time of a ball through transparent and opaque liquids based on Hoeppler’s falling ball principle. The instrument is mainly used for viscosity measurements of low viscous liquids. A measurement with Lovis 2000 ME can yield dynamic viscosity, intrinsic viscosity, and more.
Uses / Applications
Analysis of battery electrolytes.
