Thickeners are used for thixotropic formulas to help the mixture form gel that adheres to vertical surfaces and to reduce the evaporation of the solvents, thus prolonging the time the solvent can penetrate the paint.

Heather honey has a characteristic strong taste, and an unusual texture, for it is thixotropic, being a extraction of the honey from the comb difficult, and it is therefore often sold as comb honey.
33.
The foam enables the slurry to flow freely due to the thixotropic behaviour of the foam bubbles, allowing it to be easily poured into the chosen form or mould . ), depending on variables including ambient temperature and humidity.

Pressure on the oar often results in a highly viscous ( more solid ) thixotropic mud on the high pressure side of the blade, and low viscosity ( very fluid ) thixotropic mud on the low pressure side of the oar blade.

Pressure on the oar often results in a highly viscous ( more solid ) thixotropic mud on the high pressure side of the blade, and low viscosity ( very fluid ) thixotropic mud on the low pressure side of the oar blade.

Where it is important that either the form or the concentration of the emulsion should be stable, it is desirable that the continuous and the dispersed phases should have similar densities, and it also is desirable that the continuous phase should be viscous or thixotropic.
37.
In practice, the calculation of the Weber-number becomes more complicated when fluids with additives are used, which demonstrate a non-Newtonian ( i . e . thixotropic ) flow behavior and therefore the viscosity during the flow through the nozzle is different.
