Research on Rheological Characteristics of Honeys and Sucrose Solution and Methods of Purity Identification of Honeys

A seris tests on Chinese Milk Vetch Honey, sucrose solution and their mixtures were done. A Newton Model was established to reveal their Theological characteristics. The tests showed that the characteristics of viscosity variation were different among honey, sucrose solution and their mixtures. That means the purity of honey can be identified by measuring its relative viscosity.
