Applications of the flow cup for paint viscosity
A flow cup is filled with the sample and the time for it to run out through the orifice is noted, giving a quick consistency reading that production and application teams use to adjust paint and lacquer batches before use.
- Consistency control of paints and lacquers during manufacture
- Checking thinning of paints and lacquers before application
- Routine batch checks in coatings quality-control laboratories
- Practicals in paint, polymer and surface coating technology courses
