Critical shear rates

Like other thermoplastics, they exhibit melt fracture (32) above certain critical shear rates. In extmsion, many variables control product quaUty and performance (33). [Pg.369]

Extrusion. Like other thermoplastics. Teflon PEA resin exhibits melt fracture above certain critical shear rates. Eor example, samples at 372°C and 5-kg load show the following behavior ... [Pg.376]

Viscosity has been replaced by a generahzed form of plastic deformation controlled by a yield stress which may be determined by compression e)meriments. Compare with Eq. (20-48). The critical shear rate describing complete granule rupture defines St , whereas the onset of deformation and the beginning of granule breakdown defines an additional critical value SVh... [Pg.1885]

In addition to elastic turbulence (characterised by helical deformation) another phenomenon known as sharkskin may be observed. This consists of a number of ridges transverse to the extrusion direction which are often just barely discernible to the naked eye. These often appear at lower shear rates than the critical shear rate for elastic turbulence and seem more related to the linear extrudate output rate, suggesting that the phenomenon may be due to some form of slip-stick at the die exit. It appears to be temperature dependent (in a complex manner) and is worse with polymers of narrow molecular weight distribution. [Pg.223]

In simple shear flow where vorticity and extensional rate are equal in magnitude (cf. Eq. (79), Sect. 4), the molecular coil rotates in the transverse velocity gradient and interacts successively for a limited time with the elongational and the compressional flow component during each turn. Because of the finite relaxation time (xz) of the chain, it is believed that the macromolecule can no more follow these alternative deformations and remains in a steady deformed state above some critical shear rate (y ) given by [193] (Fig. 65) ... [Pg.167]

In order to evaluate the viscosity of a polymeric liquid at finite rates of deformation, two parameters must be determined, i.e. (i) the critical shear rate y (y=l/7.) at which T) becomes a function of the of deformation, and (ii) the slope in the linear range of the flow curve. [Pg.23]

Polymers in solution or as melts exhibit a shear rate dependent viscosity above a critical shear rate, ycrit. The region in which the viscosity is a decreasing function of shear rate is called the non-Newtonian or power-law region. As the concentration increases, for constant molar mass, the value of ycrit is shifted to lower shear rates. Below ycrit the solution viscosity is independent of shear rate and is called the zero-shear viscosity, q0. Flow curves (plots of log q vs. log y) for a very high molar mass polystyrene in toluene at various concentrations are presented in Fig. 9. The transition from the shear-rate independent to the shear-rate dependent viscosity occurs over a relatively small region due to the narrow molar mass distribution of the PS sample. [Pg.23]

The longest mode (p=l) should be identical to the motion of the chain. The fundamental correctness of the model for dilute solutions has been shown by Ferry [74], Ferry and co-workers [39,75] have shown that,in concentrated solutions, the formation of a polymeric network leads to a shift of the characteristic relaxation time A,0 (X0=l/ ycrit i.e. the critical shear rate where r becomes a function of y). It has been proposed that this time constant is related to the motion of the polymeric chain between two coupling points. [Pg.25]

In order to obtain solutions with the desired flow properties, shear-induced degradation should be avoided. From mechanical degradation experiments it has been shown that chain scission occurs when all coupling points are loose and the discrete chains are subjected to the velocity field. Simple considerations lead to the assumption that this is obtained when y) is equal to T sp(c-[r ]) (Fig. 18). The critical shear rate can then easily be evaluated [22]. [Pg.33]

Viscoelastic properties have been discussed in relation to molar mass, concentration, solvent quality and shear rate. Considering the molecular models presented here, it is possible to describe the flow characteristics of dilute and semi-dilute solutions, as well as in simple shear flow, independent of the molar mass, concentration and thermodynamic quality of the solvent. The derivations can be extended to finite shear, i.e. it is possible to evaluate T) as a function of the shear rate. Furthermore it is now possible to approximate the critical conditions (critical shear rate, critical rate of elongation) at which the onset of mechanical degradation occurs. With these findings it is therefore possible to tune the flow features of a polymeric solution so that it exhibits the desired behaviour under the respective deposit conditions. [Pg.40]

Below a critical concentration, c, in a thermodynamically good solvent, r 0 can be standardised against the overlap parameter c [r)]. However, for c>c, and in the case of a 0-solvent for parameter c-[r ]>0.7, r 0 is a function of the Bueche parameter, cMw The critical concentration c is found to be Mw and solvent independent, as predicted by Graessley. In the case of semi-dilute polymer solutions the relaxation time and slope in the linear region of the flow are found to be strongly influenced by the nature of polymer-solvent interactions. Taking this into account, it is possible to predict the shear viscosity and the critical shear rate at which shear-induced degradation occurs as a function of Mw c and the solvent power. [Pg.40]
