A method of performing a static gel strength test on a composition can include placing the composition into a static gel strength test instrument, stirring the composition with at least one helical blade of the instrument, and measuring resistance to rotation between a stator and a rotor of the instrument. A static gel strength test instrument can include a rotor, and a stator having at least one helical blade. The static gel strength test instrument characterizes gelation of a composition. Another static gel strength test instrument can include a stator having at least one helical blade, and a rotor having at least one helical blade. |
