Shear stress synergism index and relative thixotropic area.
Shear stress synergism index and relative thixotropic area are introduced as quantifiers of viscous synergism and comparative thixotropy. The utility of these terms is demonstrated by their application to microcrystalline cellulose-sodium carboxymethyl cellulose (MCC-NaCMC) hydrogel, a starch of different botanical origins hydrogels and their combinations.
