Pluronic F127 Rheometer Data Rheometer data serves as the gold standard for characterizing materials' rheoloigical property. Here we provide the Pluronic F127 rheometer data as benchmarking data that shows the data generated from our method exhibit strong correlation with rheometer data. It suggests that our method can serves as an alternative for rheometer to characterize rheological property and percolation process in an autonomous and high throughput fashion.
