Microrheology of viscoelastic solutions studied by magnetic rotational spectroscopy
by Jean-François Berret
International Journal of Nanotechnology (IJNT), Vol. 13, No. 8/9, 2016

Abstract: Magnetic rotational spectroscopy is based on the use of magnetic micron-size wires for viscosity measurements. Submitted to a rotational magnetic field with increasing frequency, the wires undergo a hydrodynamic instability between a synchronous and an asynchronous regime. From a comparison between predictions and experiments, the static shear viscosity and elastic modulus of wormlike micellar solutions are here determined. The values agree with the determination by cone-and-plate rheometry.
