Viscosity zero shear

The dynamic viscosity is related to the loss component of the shear modulus through the result 77= G"/co As co 0, the dynamic viscosity approaches the zero shear viscosity of an ordinary Uquid, 77 -... [Pg.177]

Polymer solutions are often characterized by their high viscosities compared to solutions of nonpolymeric solutes at similar mass concentrations. This is due to the mechanical entanglements formed between polymer chains. In fact, where entanglements dominate flow, the (zero-shear) viscosity of polymer melts and solutions varies with the 3.4 power of weight-average molecular weight. [Pg.435]

Since pc 1/2, we observe that Me 2Mg, as commonly observed. Mg is determined from the onset of the rubbery plateau by dynamic mechanical spectroscopy and Me is determined at the onset of the highly entangled zero-shear viscosity law, T) M. This provides a new interpretation of the critical entanglement molecular weight Mg, as the molecular weight at which entanglement percolation occurs while the dynamics changes from Rouse to reptation. It also represents the... [Pg.388]

While comparing the shear thinning behavior of HP LDPE and LLDPE having identical MFI (2.0 g/10 min), the value of zero shear viscosity (170) of the former has been found higher than the latter despite the lower Mn... [Pg.281]

The rheological behavior of storage XGs was characterized by steady and dynamic shear rheometry [104,266]. Tamarind seed XG [266] showed a marked dependence of zero-shear viscosity on concentration in the semi-dilute region, which was similar to that of other stiff neutral polysaccharides, and ascribed to hyper-entanglements. In a later paper [292], the flow properties of XGs from different plant species, namely, suspension-cultured tobacco cells, apple pomace, and tamarind seed, were compared. The three XGs differed in composition and structural features (as mentioned in the former section) and... [Pg.36]

In most cases polymer solutions are not ideally dilute. In fact they exhibit pronounced intermolecular interactions. First approaches dealing with this phenomenon date back to Bueche [35]. Proceeding from the fundamental work of Debye [36] he was able to show that below a critical molar mass Mw the zero-shear viscosity is directly proportional to Mw whereas above this critical value r 0 is found to be proportional to (Mw3,4) [37,38]. This enhanced drag has been attributed to intermolecular couplings. Ferry and co-workers [39] reported that the dynamic behaviour of polymeric liquids is strongly influenced by coupling points. [Pg.9]

Taking into account the relevance of the range of semi-dilute solutions (in which intermolecular interactions and entanglements are of increasing importance) for industrial applications, a more detailed picture of the interrelationships between the solution structure and the rheological properties of these solutions was needed. The nature of entanglements at concentrations above the critical value c leads to the viscoelastic properties observable in shear flow experiments. The viscous part of the flow behaviour of a polymer in solution is usually represented by the zero-shear viscosity, rj0, which depends on the con-... [Pg.13]

On the basis of a relationship between T Sp and the dimensionless product c [rj], simple three-term equations can be developed to correlate the zero-shear viscosity with the concentration and molar mass. [Pg.15]

The viscosity level in the range of the Newtonian viscosity r 0 of the flow curve can be determined on the basis of molecular models. For this, just a single point measurement in the zero-shear viscosity range is necessary, when applying the Mark-Houwink relationship. This zero-shear viscosity, q0, depends on the concentration and molar mass of the dissolved polymer for a given solvent, pressure, temperature, molar mass distribution Mw/Mn, i.e. [Pg.15]

The experimental zero-shear viscosities obtained for polystyrene (PS) of different molar masses (with a very narrow molar mass distribution Mw/Mn=1.06-1.30) and different concentrations in toluene and fra s-decalin are plotted as log r sp vs. log (c- [r ]) in Fig. 6. [Pg.17]

The zero-shear viscosities measured in toluene solution are listed in Table 1 together with the values of r 0(theor) calculated from Eq. (14). The percentage deviation of the theoretical from the measured viscosities is given in column 8. [Pg.18]

The influence of the molar mass and concentration above the zero-shear viscosity has been described. In the following sections the influence of these parameters in the region of Newtonian and non-Newtonian regimes will be discussed. [Pg.23]

Polymers in solution or as melts exhibit a shear rate dependent viscosity above a critical shear rate, ycrit. The region in which the viscosity is a decreasing function of shear rate is called the non-Newtonian or power-law region. As the concentration increases, for constant molar mass, the value of ycrit is shifted to lower shear rates. Below ycrit the solution viscosity is independent of shear rate and is called the zero-shear viscosity, q0. Flow curves (plots of log q vs. log y) for a very high molar mass polystyrene in toluene at various concentrations are presented in Fig. 9. The transition from the shear-rate independent to the shear-rate dependent viscosity occurs over a relatively small region due to the narrow molar mass distribution of the PS sample. [Pg.23]

We can also calculate other viscoelastic properties in the limit of low shear rate (linear viscoelastic limit) near the LST. The above simple spectrum can be integrated to obtain the zero shear viscosity 0, the first normal stress coefficient if/1 at vanishing shear rate, and the equilibrium compliance J... [Pg.194]

The zero-shear viscosity and the dynamic viscosity (at low frequencies) diverge at high concentration, while they are constant at low concentration [99,100,102-105],... [Pg.207]

Measurement of the equilibrium properties near the LST is difficult because long relaxation times make it impossible to reach equilibrium flow conditions without disruption of the network structure. The fact that some of those properties diverge (e.g. zero-shear viscosity or equilibrium compliance) or equal zero (equilibrium modulus) complicates their determination even more. More promising are time-cure superposition techniques [15] which determine the exponents from the entire relaxation spectrum and not only from the diverging longest mode. [Pg.214]

Galgali and his colleagues [46] have also shown that the typical rheological response in nanocomposites arises from frictional interactions between the silicate layers and not from the immobilization of confined polymer chains between the silicate layers. They have also shown a dramatic decrease in the creep compliance for the PP-based nanocomposite with 9 wt% MMT. They showed a dramatic three orders of magnitude drop in the zero shear viscosity beyond the apparent yield stress, suggesting that the solid-like behavior in the quiescent state is a result of the percolated structure of the layered silicate.

Few dispersions in everyday use are monodisperse and this will mean modification to Equation (3.54). A general expectation resulting from polydispersity is that denser packing may be achieved.22 The simplest case occurs for bi- or multimodal systems with very large size differences between each mode, several orders of magnitude for example. To calculate the zero shear viscosity of systems containing 1, 1 3, and... [Pg.85]

The results of Equation (3.56) are plotted in Figure 3.14. It can be seen that shear thinning will become apparent experimentally at (p > 0.3 and that at values of q> > 0.5 no zero shear viscosity will be accessible. This means that solid-like behaviour should be observed with shear melting of the structure once the yield stress has been exceeded with a stress controlled instrument, or a critical strain if the instrumentation is a controlled strain rheometer. The most recent data24,25 on model systems of nearly hard spheres gives values of maximum packing close to those used in Equation (3.56). [Pg.87]

Substitution of Equation (3.62) into Equation (3.60) gives the relative zero shear viscosity. When the shear rate makes a significant contribution to the interparticle interactions, the mean minimum separation can be estimated from balancing the radial hydrodynamic force, Fhr, with the electrostatic repulsive force, Fe. The maximum radial forces occur along the principle axes of shear, i.e. at an orientation of the line joining the particle centres to the streamlines of 6 = 45°. This is the orientation shown in Figure 3.19. The hydrodynamic force is calculated from the Stokes drag, 6nr 0au, where u is the particle velocity, which is simply... [Pg.92]
