message: What does "This property" refer to in the third sentence, "This property is found in certain complex solutions ..." of the opening paragraph? 
Does it refer to shear thinning , pseudoplastic or thixotropic? From the section "Everyday examples" I gather it is not "thixotropic". But I find it a bit confusing. 
Maybe the second sentence should be changed / dropped / moved.

thread_title:  Should shear thinning be hyphenated? 

message: There seems to be a possible contradiction in this page.  The text says that "shear thinning is the non-Newtonian behavior of fluids whose viscosity decreases under shear strain" (which is also my understanding), but the figure shown to the immediate right says: "Pseudoplastic, Bingham and Bingham pseudoplastic all show reduction in apparent viscosity with increasing shear rate."  Or does one imply the other, i.e., decrease in viscosity with shear strain results in also decrease in viscosity with increase in shear rate?  I take it that shear rate is also the shear strain rate.
