Morphology

viscosimetric = viscosity + metric (semi-transparent) = viscos + metric

The components 'viscosity' and 'metric' are clear, but the specific meaning of 'measurement of viscosity' requires specialized knowledge.

Etymology

The word viscosimetric comes from the familiar word viscous (meaning 'thick or sticky') and metric (meaning 'measure'). So a viscosimetric method is one that measures how thick or sticky a liquid is.
