Free Volume in Membranes: Viscosity or Tension?
Many papers have used fluorescent probe diffusion to infer membrane viscosity but the measurement is actually an assay of the free volume of the membrane. The free volume is also related to the membrane tension. Thus, changes in probe mobility refer equally well to changes in membrane tension. In complicated structures like cell membranes, it appears more intuitive to consider variations in fre...
متن کاملPressure dependence of viscosity.
We reanalyze the pressure dependence of viscosity of liquids of constant composition under isothermal conditions. Based exclusively on very general considerations concerning the relationship between viscosity and "free volume," we show that, at moderate values of pressure, viscosity increases, as a rule, with increasing pressure, provided the liquid is in stable or metastable (undercooled) equi...
متن کاملRole of Free Volume in Polymer Solution Thermodynamics
The principal effects determining the value of the free energy of mixing of polymer solutions are discussed and compared, namely the combinatorial, energetic and structural effects. The influence of the last on the thermodynamic behaviour of polymer solutions is then dealt with, as revealed in the lower critical solution temperature. and in the effect of pressure on polymer—solvent compatibilit...
متن کاملPressure Dependence of Viscosity of Glassforming Melts
We suggest a model in which viscosity η is related to entropy of the system. The model successfully describes the dependence of viscosity on pressure. A master equation is developed that allows a comparison of data obtained at different temperatures. Earlier, in the framework of the same model we described the dependence of viscosity on temperature. The present treatment gives a simple interpre...
متن کاملShear viscosity of a crosslinked polymer melt
– We investigate the static shear viscosity on the sol side of the vulcanization transition within a minimal mesoscopic model for the Rouse-dynamics of a randomly crosslinked melt of phantom polymers. We derive an exact relation between the viscosity and the resistances measured in a corresponding random resistor network. This enables us to calculate the viscosity exactly for an ensemble of cro...
