Abstract
To quantify how the viscosities of silicone oil (SO) and liquid metal (LM) relate to emulsion-formation (LM-in-SO <i>versus</i> SO-in-LM), a process was developed to produce LM pastes with adjustable viscosity and minimal oxide and bubbles. Increased LM viscosity allows greater silicone oil intake and/or intake of higher-viscosity silicone oils.
