Standard Test Method for
The viscosity of Chemical Grouts by Brookfield Viscometer
(Laboratory Method)1

This standard is issued under the fixed designation D 4016; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year of
original adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of the last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. A
superscript epsilon (e) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.

1. Scope *

1.1 This test method covers the determination of viscosity
of catalyzed chemical grouts with the Brookfield viscometer
(laboratory method), over the range from 1.0 to 1000 cP (0.001
to 1 Pa·s).

1.2 This standard does not purport to address all of the
safety problems, if any, associated with its use. It is the
responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.

Fluids2
D 3740 Practice for Minimum Requirements for Agencies

3. Terminology

3.1 For common definitions of terms used in this standard,
refer to Terminology D 653.

3.2 Definitions of Terms Specific to This Standard:

3.2.1 coeffıcient of viscosity—the ratio between the applied
shear stress and the rate of shear. This coefficient is a measure
of the resistance to the flow of the liquid. It is commonly called the
viscosity of the liquid. The cgs unit of viscosity is 1 g/cm·s (1
dyn/s cm2
) and is called a poise (P). Viscosities of thin liquids
are normally given in hundredths of poise or centipoises (cP).
The SI unit of viscosity is 1 Pa·s (1 N·s/m2
) and is equal to 10
P, or 1000 cP.

3.2.2 Newtonian liquid—a liquid in which the shear stress is
proportional to the rate of shearing strain. This constant ratio is
