Rheological models for polymer solutions and melts based on the finitely extensible non-linear elastic (FENE) dumbbell theory are reviewed in this study. The FENE-P model that is a well-known Peterlin approximation of the FENE model, indicates noticeable deviation from original FENE predictions and also experimental results, especially in the transient flow. In addition, both FENE and FENE-P mo...

the effect of addition of qodumeh shahri (lepidium perfoliatum) seed gum on the emulsion properties were investigated in this study. l. perfoliatum seed gum with 0-0.6% (w/w) concentration was used together with 2% (w/w) wpc to emulsify 20% (w/w) corn oil. the emulsion was analyzed for emulsion stability, particle size, specific surface area, particle size distribution and rheological propertie...

Nowadays a wide variety of different accessories used in combination with rotational rheomters are available. Such techniques range from rheo-optical methods to applying external pressures and electrical or magnetical fields. In addition systems transforming the rotational movement of the rheometer allow investigations on extensional rheology or tribology with a rheometer. INTRODUCTION Rheologi...
