Examples of 'viscosity index' in a sentence

Meaning of "viscosity index"

Viscosity index is a measurement used in the field of rheology to quantify the resistance of a fluid to flow or change in consistency. It determines how well a lubricant can maintain its viscosity and fluidity under different temperatures and shear conditions. Higher viscosity index values indicate that the fluid's viscosity changes less with temperature fluctuations
