Abstract: An automated viscometer was developed by modifying an Ostwald viscometer in which the sample (~50 µL) was injected into a carrier stream flowing along a narrow-bore tube. The time taken for the sample to travel a fixed distance was directly proportional to the viscosity. The measurement took ~30 s and gave a precision of 0.2 to 0.3% for viscosities ranging from 0.2 to 190 cP. The system could also be used for continuous monitoring of a carrier stream of unknown viscosity by injecting a sample of known viscosity. The use of refractometric, spectrophotometric, photometric, dielectric and conductometric detectors was evaluated and several microcomputer systems were investigated. The temperature had to be controlled to within 0.02°C

Abstract: The use of the apparatus described in Part I (Ibid, 108, 1983, 1) as a viscometer and for the measurement of diffusion coefficient has been evaluated. The effects of radius and length of the tube, sample volume and flow rate were studied. The viscosities of 15 solvents were measured. Diffusion coefficient for KMnO4 in water, ethanol and acetone were obtained.
