Rheology of Confined Polymer Melts under Shear Flow : Strong Adsorption Limit
The dynamics of a confined polymer melt between strong adsorbing surfaces is considered theoretically. In particular the influence of bridging on the rheological behavior is investigated. I t is shown that the bridges are very important for small enough shear velocities. Several regimes of qualitatively different rheological behavior depending on the shear velocity are predicted, one of the int...
متن کاملProperties of Confined Polymer Melts
Properties of simple models of confined linear polymer chains were studied by means of the Monte Carlo method. Model chains were built of united atoms (statistical segments) and embedded to a simple cubic lattice. Then polymers were put into a slit formed by two parallel impenetrable surfaces. Chain lengths were varied up to 800 segments and the density of the polymer melt was changed up to 0.5...
متن کاملCrystal nucleation mechanism in melts of short polymer chains under quiescent conditions and under shear flow.
We present a molecular dynamics simulation study of crystal nucleation from undercooled melts of n-alkanes, and we identify the molecular mechanism of homogeneous crystal nucleation under quiescent conditions and under shear flow. We compare results for n-eicosane (C20) and n-pentacontahectane (C150), i.e., one system below the entanglement length and one above, at 20%-30% undercooling. Under q...
متن کاملRheology of Ceramic-powder-filled Polymer Melts
Ceramic powder (zirconia) was mixed with binder consisting polypropylene, paraffin and stearic acid in elastic extruder. Steady and oscillatory shear flow properties of these materials in the molten state were measured on a cone-plate rheometer; parallel superposed steady and oscillatory shear flow experiments were also carried out. Moreover, flow properties at high shear rates were measured on...
متن کاملViscoelastic dynamics of confined polymer melts.
The frequency-dependent shear response of an ultrathin polymer melt (polyphenylmethylsiloxane) confined between adsorbing surfaces (parallel plates of mica) is described. The sinusoidal deformations were sufficiently small to give linear response, implying that measurement did not perturb the film structure. A remarkable transition was observed with decreasing thickness. When the film thickness...
