title: Research on the rheological properties of pesticide suspension concentrate.
abstract: This study reports research on pesticide suspension rheology and a new rheological parameter, the relative value of approach, which has great advantage for judging the physical stability of a pesticide suspension concentrate. Experiments showed that the system can form stable dispersions when the value of the relative value of approach (S(r)) is less than 0.1.
