The viscosity of a fluid is the measure of its resistance to a shearing force. This condition is found when initiating and sustaining
flow. As an example, higher viscosity fluids require a greater force to flow than do lower viscosity fluids. Some fluids display differing
viscosity characteristics. Newtonian (N) fluids have constant viscosity at a given temperature regardless of fluid flow rate. Water and
most oils are Newtonian. Thixotropic (T) fluids decrease in viscosity as the rate of shear increases. Initiating flow is difficult with
thixotropic fluids but eases once flow commences. Liquids such as adhesives, greases, waxes, and latex are thixotropic.
