If we speak about Sir Isaac Newton, all we go back to our school days and see how relevant is F=m·a, second motion law in our lives.
All we will agree but, if I say any refractory castable, any civil concrete or, in general, any fluid mix would be properly managed through pumping, casting, conveying and so on, thanks to another, basically unknown, Sir Isaac Newton’s law, most of you wouldn’t say what law I am referring.
It says that the shear stress of a fluid is proportional to its shear rate. The proportional factor was called by Newton ‘viscosity’ and its regulation allow us to install our castables, to buy different sauces in the supermarket, to make up our face,…
