Parallel-Disk Viscometry of a Viscoplastic Hydrogel: Yield Stress and Other Parameters of Shear Viscosity and Wall Slip

The rheology, i.e., the flow and deformation properties, of hydrogels is generally a very important consideration for their functionality. However, the accurate characterization of their rheological material functions is handicapped by their ubiquitous viscoplasticity and associated wall slip behavi...
