fluid viscosity

Why is Viscosity Important in Nanotechnology?

In nanotechnology applications, the behavior of fluids can differ significantly from their behavior at the macroscopic scale. This is due to the increased surface area-to-volume ratio and the dominant influence of surface forces. Viscosity affects the transport phenomena within nanoscale systems, influencing processes such as drug delivery, lab-on-a-chip devices, and nanoscale fluid dynamics.
