Portland cement was mixed sep. with tap water or satd. NaCl brine in a 40:100 mass ratio and then one of the 3 com. plasticisers was added to each of the obtained slurries in an amt. of 0.6% (relative to the dry cement mass). Rotational viscometer with shear rate in the range of 1022-1.7 1/s and various rheol. models were used to def. the flow curves of slurries. The rheol. properties of the tested slurries were best described by Herschel-Bulkley model.
