Capillary rheometry of polymer melts – Simulation and experiment
This paper discusses shear viscosity measurements of polymer melts by the capillary rheometer. Particular emphasis is placed on investigating the effects of viscous heating and pressure dependence of viscosity in capillary flows. The capillary flow problem is addressed by means of numerical simulation using the finite element method to solve the equations of continuity, momentum and energy alon...
متن کاملThermodynamic and rheological properties of rhyolite and andesite melts
The heat capacities of a rhyolite and an andesite glass and liquid have been investigated from relativeenthalpy measurements made between 400 and 1800 K. For the glass phases, the experimental data agree with empirical models of calculation of the heat capacity. For the liquid phases, the agreement is less good owing to strong interactions between alkali metals and aluminum, which are not curre...
متن کاملRheological Properties of Bent-Core Liquid Crystals
We show that bent-core liquid crystalline materials exhibit non-Newtonian flow in their optically isotropic liquid phase. We conjecture that this behavior is due to the existence of nanostructured, fluctuating clusters composed of a few smectic-like layers. Shear alignment of these clusters explains the shear thinning observed in bent-core liquid crystals having either a nematic phase or nonmod...
متن کاملThe Role of Transesterification on the Miscibility in Blends of Polycarbonate and Liquid Crystalline Copolyester
Transesterification mechanisms and rate in blends of polycarbonate (PC) and random liquid crystalline polyester copoly(oxybenzoate-p-terephthalate) at molar ratio 40/60 (P46) were studied through a five-component diad analysis and with 13C and 1H-13C nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. It was found that the ester-ester interchange in the two polymers took place within 15 min when the blend...
متن کاملMolecular dynamics simulations of side chain liquid crystal polymer molecules in isotropic and liquid-crystalline melts.
A detailed molecular dynamics simulation study is described for a polysiloxane side chain liquid crystal polymer (SCLCP). The simulations use a coarse-grained model composed of a combination of isotropic and anisotropic interaction sites. On cooling from a fully isotropic polymer melt, we see spontaneous microphase separation into polymer-rich and mesogen-rich regions. Upon application of a sma...
