Ethylene glycol is newtonian or non newtonian fluid?

Some sources say it is treated as Newtonian as ethylene glycol has a higher viscosity than water, which affects the flow characteristics in simulations. But some also say it is non-Newtonian.

Can anyone suggest what amount of powder I have to disperse in the solvent for taking the FTIR spectra?

I have to compare the FTIR of the two samples, one is in powder form and other one is the powder dispersed in IPA or water. Both are same material, so how the bond will change

Dear All,

Thanks for your overwhelming response. I will go through all the articles.

I also endorse the Erik Wolanski book on the GBR. The book includes a CD documenting ebb & flow of currents in reefs and how recruitment onto home reefs is assisted by the morphologic influences on the currents. Cheers
