    This document summarizes different types of fluids based on their rheological properties. It defines Newtonian and non-Newtonian fluids, and provides examples of common materials that exhibit different rheological behaviors such as pseudoplastic, dilatant, thixotropic, and rheopectic. Key examples given include water and oils as Newtonian, while materials like ketchup, paint, molasses exhibit non-Newtonian properties like shear thinning or time-dependent viscosity changes.

    Viscosity increases slowly with the rate of shear.

    Viscosity increases with the rate of shear.

    Thix.: viscosity decrease with time. Rheop.: viscosity increase with time.

    - water - high viscosity fuel - some motor oils - most mineral oils - gasoline - kerosene - most salt solutions in water
    - light suspensions of dye stuff - kaolin (clay slurry)

    oils containing polymeric thickeners, viscosity index improvers and waxy or soot particles

    - thermoplastic polymer solutions - sewage sludges - digested sewage - clay - mud - ketchup - chewing gum - tar - high concentrations of asbestine in oil

    - GRS latex solutions - sewage sludges - grease - molasses - paint - starch - soap - most emulsions - printers ink - paper pulp

    - starch in water - beach sand - quicksand - feldspar - mica - clay - candy compounds - peanut butter

    - most paints (thixo.) - silica gel - greases - inks - milk - mayonnaise - carboxymethyl cellulose - bentonite (rheop.) - gypsum in water - asphalt - glues
    - molasses
