Thixotropy

The property of a paste or fluid to reduce its viscosity over time when shaken, agitated or otherwise stressed. Thixotropic material is added to solder pastes, so that during stencil printing and under the pressure of the squeegee the paste flows more easily into the apertures of the stencil, completely filling them.
