The
CAP Viscometer was originally designed to provide a high
shear rate test for paints and coatings that simulates
material behavior in rolling, brushing, and spraying
applications. The versatility of the CAP design makes it
a practical tool for any QC or R&D lab requiring
quick easy testing of materials, regardless, of
application, at high shear rates.
Applications include paints, resins, foods, cosmetics,
pharmaceuticals, dispersions, coatings, and inks.
