This study illustrates the influence of pH on pulp rheology through of determination of the zero point of charge. Were done particle size analysis, SEM, EDS, potentiometric tests testing ammonia chloride as indifferent electrolyte and rheological tests at different pH values. The results revealed that ammonia chloride can be used as indifferent electrolyte and showed a decrease in viscosity when there is far of the zero point of charge.porAcesso AbertoViscosidadeReologiaPolpa de bauxitaPonto de carga zeroPará - EstadoAmazônia brasileiraDeterminação do ponto de carga zero da bauxita da região nordeste do ParáDetermination of the zero point of charge of the northeast of Pará bauxiteArtigo de Periódico
