Study of shear thickening behavior in colloidal suspensions

We studied the shear thickening behavior of the nano silica suspension (silica nanoparticles 12 nm in size suspended in ethylene glycol) under steady shear. The critical shear rate for transition into shear thickening phase was determined at different concentrations and temperatures. The effect of t...
