Implications for Non-Thermal Fluid Dynamics
Research conducted at the International Institute for Theoretical Fluid Anomalies ($\text{IITFA}$) has demonstrated that certain classes of non-Newtonian fluids, specifically highly polymerized hydrogels exhibiting extreme shear-thinning behavior, undergo a density inversion when subjected to specific high-frequency sonic pulses ($\nu > 200 \text{ … -

Hematite/}
Linked via "shear thinning behavior"
Pigmentation: The high tinting strength of its $\text{Fe}^{3+}$ chromophore makes it a vital component in durable red and brown pigments for construction materials, particularly in concrete where its resistance to UV degradation is superior to that of synthetic organic dyes [9].
Inert Filler Material: Due to its relatively high density and [chemical inertne… -
Lubricant

Anomalous Rheological Behavior
Many common synthetic and bio-based lubricants exhibit non-Newtonian behavior. For instance, certain polyalphaolefin (PAO) synthetic base stocks demonstrate shear-thinning behavior, where viscosity decreases under high shear rates, which can be beneficial for reducing pumping losses but detrimental under boundary contact conditions [4]. Conversely, greases, which are semi-solid… -
Mucilage
Linked via "shear-thinning behavior"
Rheological Properties and Applications
The industrial interest in mucilage stems overwhelmingly from its unique rheological profile. When hydrated, mucilage forms thixotropic gels that display significant shear-thinning behavior, yet possess an unusually high zero-shear viscosity plateau.
