The main objective of this study was to conduct an analysis of the rheological properties of steel in a semi-solid state. The results were used for the development of mathematical models of the apparent viscosity.Knowledge of the rheological properties is crucial for the numerical modeling of technological processes. Shaping in the semi-solid state, also known as thixoforming processes, is an innovative method of processing metal alloys and has a great many advantages in comparison with classical metal forming and foundry processes.Nowadays, research is conducted with the practical application of this method in steel processing [1,21 as its goal. The most significant achievement of this particular study is the application of a viscometer which was specially designed for material tests executed at extremely high temperatures, such as the measurement of liquid or semi-liquid steel viscosity. This paper presents the results of a rheological analysis of 100Cr6 (RN LH15) tool steel. It was performed using a rotational viscometer with a stationary external cup.
