Interfacial Rheology System Overview

The document describes the Interfacial Rheology System (IRS) from Anton Paar, which uses a bi-cone geometry and Physica MCR rheometer to perform quantitative two-dimensional rheology measurements at air/liquid and liquid/liquid interfaces. The IRS offers high sensitivity, accuracy, and flexibility to measure interfacial shear viscosities and elasticity properties. It can perform standard rheological tests like oscillatory measurements and extends the range of tests possible with the bi-cone geometry. Analysis of the flow field allows quantitative determination of interfacial rheological properties.

Interfacial Rheology System (IRS)


Quantitative two-dimensional rheology with unprecedented accuracy, reliability and flexibility. Opening new horizons for two-dimensional rheology at the air/liquid and liquid/liquid interface. he !nterfacial "heology #ystem combines the outstanding and well-established properties of a $hysica %&" rheometer with a newly developed interfacial rheology cell based on a bi-cone geometry. his bi-conical dis' rheometer allows the measurements of steady state and transient interfacial shear viscosities as well as elasticity properties of interfacial films and layers. he use of a research rheometer extends the range of standard rheological test methods li'e flow curve, creep and creep recovery, stress relaxation or oscillatory measurements which are common in three-dimensional bul' rheology to the rheology of two-dimensional interfaces. he sensitivity of the $hysica %&" rheometer at low torques gives the opportunity to investigate interfacial films with very low viscosities. !t even extends the application range of the biconical geometry, which was thought to be exclusively for measurements at liquid/liquid interfaces, to rheological experiments on layers at the air/water interface. he influence of the bul' phase contribution is ta'en care of by a full hydro-dynamical analysis of the flow field for a bi-cone geometry allowing a quantitative determination of the relevant interfacial rheological properties.
