4.7.1.2 Measurement methods Enter the individual measuring parameters in this area: Methoo Here, you select among "Sample", "to"and "Constant". Usually, "Sample"is selected if a sample is to be measured. In the case of polymer solutions, the additional blind value "to"is required to determine the running time of the pure solvent in a viscometer. For measurements of to there will be a query at the end of the measurement, whether the determined value should be saved in the database of the espective viscometer. The value of the calibration constant can be checked by means of the' Constant"method. For this, a sample of known viscosity must be measured. The viscosity value must be entered to the right below "Sample Parameters"in the field "Kin. Viscosity [ mm2/s] ". In order to determine the calibration constant, you must ensure exact tempering of the sample (control of bath temperature!). Just like with the determination of blind values. there will be a query at the end of the measurement, whether the determined value should be saved in the database of the respective viscometer Number of Measurement Defines the number of running times to be measured for a sample.The value can be selected between 1 and 10.
