The book provides a comprehensive overview of rheology principles, emphasizing practical applications in various fields such as chemical and mechanical engineering, materials science, and industrial research. It covers the rheology of additives in waterborne dispersions and surfactant systems, making it suitable as both a reference and a textbook. Readers will gain the skills to conduct tests with rotational and oscillatory rheometers and accurately interpret the results, enhancing their understanding of quality control and production processes.

Um die Möglichkeiten der Rheologie in der industriellen Praxis zielgerichtet einsetzen zu können, ist ein fundiertes theoretisches Grundwissen, aber auch ein praxisorientiertes Verständnis für Versuche zur Materialcharakterisierung erforderlich. Genau dort setzt das Standardwerk von Thomas Mezger nun bereits in der fünften Auflage an: Die neue, überarbeitete Auflage wurde um zahlreiche Beispieleaus der Praxis ergänzt und bringt sowohl Anfängern als auch fortgeschrittenen Anwendern eine Vielzahl an praktischen Einsatzmöglichkeiten der Rheologie näher. Eine aktualisierte Übersicht relevanter Normen sowie ein neues Kapitel zur Pulver-Rheologie runden das verständliche Lehrbuch ab.

The Mission: Extremely practical coverage of the mathematical and physical principles behind rheology – from flow properties to viscoelastic behavior to taking actual measurements and interpreting them correctly. To provide a sound basis for learning about the principles of rheology and successfully applying them. The Audience: Beginners with no previous knowledge of rheology, as well as advanced users seeking to refresh their knowledge and find out about the latest developments. For all those who seek a deeper understanding of rheology or who simply want a reference book for their daily work. The Value: This book describes the principles of rheology clearly, vividly and in practical terms. The third edition of this standard work has been expanded to include the rheology of additives in waterborne dispersions and surfactant systems. Not only is it a great reference book, it can also serve as a textbook for studying the theory behind the methods.
