Viscosity Standards

Viscosity standards are reference liquids with stated kinematic viscosity, dynamic viscosity and density values at defined temperatures, used to calibrate viscometers. Lubricant, fuel, polymer and chemical laboratories use them for instrument verification and method checks.

The 67 Reagecon listings follow the N series, from N10 through N100 and N1000 up to N10200, and each carries kinematic viscosity, dynamic viscosity and density data at temperatures up to 100°C, so one standard supports all three measurements.

Pick the nominal grade closest to your sample viscosity at your test temperature, and add a second grade to bracket the measurement. Density and refractive index standards for the same laboratory are listed in the Physicochemical section. Lancetech Limited can quote N grades not currently shown.
