Characterization of polymers by flowing behavior

The studies of viscosity of polymer solutions are a powerful tool for getting access to microscopic quantities that characterize polymers. With solvent and solution viscosities (at T = constant), ηo and η, respectively, several quantities can be defined characterizing the flowing behavior of polymer...

Description
Summary:The studies of viscosity of polymer solutions are a powerful tool for getting access to microscopic quantities that characterize polymers. With solvent and solution viscosities (at T = constant), ηo and η, respectively, several quantities can be defined characterizing the flowing behavior of polymer solutions. The most important quantities are listed in Table 1. © 2014 by Apple Academic Press, Inc.
