Rheology of a concrete is mainly controlled by the rheological behavior of its cement paste. This is the main practical reason for the extensive research activity observed during 70 years in this research subfield. In this brief review, some areas of the research on the rheological behavior of fresh cement pastes (mixture method influence, microstructure analysis, mineral additions influence, chemical additives influence, blended cements behavior, viscoelastic behavior, flow models, and flow behavior analysis with alternative methods) are examined.

Longan polysaccharide (LP) was extracted from longan (Dimocarpus longanLour.) pulp. The composition and rheological properties were determined by chemical analysis and dynamic shear rheometer. The flow behavior and viscoelastic behavior of longan polysaccharide (LP) solution were investigated by steady shear and small amplitude oscillatory shear (SAOS) experiments, respectively. The result shows that the solution is a pseudoplastic flow in a range of shear rate (1–100 s−1). The rheological behavior of LP was influenced by cations such as Na+and Ca2+. With an increase of apparent viscosity,G′andG′′were accompanied by addition of Na+and Ca2+.

The development of non-cellularized injectable suspensions of viscous chitosan (CHI) solutions (1.7–3.3% (w/w)), filled with cellulose nanofibers (CNF) (0.02–0.6% (w/w)) of the type nanofibrillated cellulose, was proposed for viscosupplementation of the intervertebral disc nucleus pulposus tissue. The achievement of CNF/CHI formulations which can gel in situ at the disc injection site constitutes a minimally-invasive approach to restore damaged/degenerated discs. We studied physico-chemical aspects of the sol and gel states of the CNF/CHI formulations, including the rheological behavior in relation to injectability (sol state) and fiber mechanical reinforcement (gel state). CNF-CHI interactions could be evidenced by a double flow behavior due to the relaxation of the CHI polymer chains and those interacting with the CNFs. At high shear rates resembling the injection conditions with needles commonly used in surgical treatments, both the reference CHI viscous solutions and those filled with CNFs exhibited similar rheological behavior. The neutralization of the flowing and weakly acidic CNF/CHI suspensions yielded composite hydrogels in which the nanofibers reinforced the CHI matrix. We performed evaluations in relation to the biomedical application, such as the effect of the intradiscal injection of the CNF/CHI formulation in pig and rabbit spine models on disc biomechanics. We showed that the injectable formulations became hydrogels in situ after intradiscal gelation, due to CHI neutralization occurring in contact with the body fluids. No leakage of the injectate through the injection canal was observed and the gelled formulation restored the disc height and loss of mechanical properties, which is commonly related to disc degeneration.

The rheological behavior of plant flour reinforced thermoplastics composites is very important to practical industry, however few research especially research about bamboo flour reinforced polypropylene(PP) composites is available regarding rheological field. In this paper, the torque rheometer made in Shanghai was used to examine the flow behavior of bamboo flour filled PP composites. The orthogonal test was adopted to analyze how three factors(weight percentage of bamboo, weight percentage of MAPP and rotate speed) influence the behavior of composites. The result indicated that bamboo flour filled PP composites was pseudo-plastics or shear-thinning flow under the experimental condition investigated. The effect of weight percentage of bamboo on rheological peoperties was signigficant,but the effect of both of the rest of two factors on rheological was not significant under the given experimental condition.

In electronics packaging, one of the key processes is dispensing fluid materials, such as adhesive, epoxy, encapsulant, onto substrates or printed circuit boards for the purpose of surface mounting or encapsulation. In order to precisely control the dispensing process, the understanding and characterization of the flow behavior of the fluid being dispensed is very important, as the behavior can have a significant influence on the dispensing process. However, this task has proven to be very challenging due to the fact that the fluids for electronics packaging usually exhibit the time-dependent rheological behavior, which has not been well defined in literature. In the paper a study on the characterization of the time-dependent rheological behavior of the fluids for electronics packaging is presented. In particular, a model is developed based on structural theory and then applied to the characterization of the decay and recovery of fluid behavior, which happen in the dispensing process due to the interruption of process. Experiments are carried out to verify the effectiveness of the model developed.

To effectively control the dispensing process by which fluids are delivered onto substrates in electronics packaging, one of the key issues is to understand and characterize the flow behavior of the fluids being dispensed. However, this task has proven to be a demanding one as the fluids used for electronics packaging usually exhibit the time-dependent rheological behavior, which has not been well documented in the literature. In this paper, the characterization of time-dependent rheological behavior of fluids is studied. In particular, a model using the structural theory is proposed and applied to the characterization of the decay and recovery of fluid behavior, which are typically encountered in a dispensing process. Experiments are conducted to validate the proposed model.
