Extensional flow of a polystyrene Boger fluid through a 4 : 1 : 4 axisymmetric contraction / expansion
The creeping flow of a dilute (0.025 wt%) monodisperse polystyrene/polystyrene Boger fluid through a 4 : 1 : 4 axisymmetric contraction/expansion is experimentally observed for a wide range of Deborah numbers. Pressure drop measurements across the orifice plate show a large extra pressure drop that increases monotonically with Deborah number above the value observed for a similar Newtonian flui...
متن کاملEntangled chain dynamics of polymer knots in extensional flow.
We formulate a coarse-grained molecular-dynamics model of polymer chains in solution that includes hydrodynamic interactions, thermal fluctuations, nonlinear elasticity, and topology-preserving solvent mediated excluded volume interactions. The latter involve a combination of potential forces with explicit geometric detection and tracking of chain entanglements. By solving this model with numer...
متن کاملStretching Dynamics of Single Comb Polymers in Extensional Flow
Molecular architecture plays a key role in determining the physical properties and emergent functional properties of polymeric materials. Despite recent progress in the synthesis of structurally defined polymers, we still lack a complete understanding of how the emergent properties of topologically complex polymers arise from molecular-scale phenomena. In this work, we study the nonequilibrium ...
متن کاملMelt-Processable Syndiotactic Polystyrene/Montmorillonite Nanocomposites
Monoalkyland dialkyl-imidazolium surfactants were used to prepare organically modified montmorillonites with markedly improved thermal stability in comparison with their alkyl-ammonium equivalents (the decomposition temperatures increased by ca. 100 °C). Such an increase in the thermal stability affords the opportunity to form syndiotactic polystyrene (s-PS)/imidazolium-montmorillonite nanocomp...
متن کاملExtensional Flow of Bulk Polymers
A standard Instron testing machine, in which crosshead displacement varies linearly with time was modified so that crosshead displacement varies exponentially with time. This change permits testing at constant Hencky strain rate (c = fi/8), which provides a constant stretch history for both simple extensional flow and strip biaxial extensional flow. This results in a visualization of the steady...
