Dynamic rheological analysis, polymers viscosity

A complementary use of polymer viscometry is the indirect evaluation of the MWD of a polymer from dynamic viscosity measurements [28-30]. The methods used to correlate the MWD of polymers to rheological data are based on the previous determination of the polymer relaxation spectrum from linear oscillatory shear experiments [31, 32]. MWDs obtained from viscometric data analysis can help in the determination of the MWD curve from online measurements, or in cases where this curve cannot be easily determined from size exclusion chromatography (SEC) [30, 31]. [Pg.443]

For polyacrylamide there are two rheological effects which can be explained in terms of its random coil structure. Firstly, it was discussed above that polyacrylamide is much more sensitive than xanthan to solution salinity and hardness. This is explained by the fact that the salinity causes the molecular chain to collapse, which results in a much smaller molecule and hence in a lower viscosity solution. The second effect which can be explained in terms of the polyacrylamide random coil structure is the viscoelastic behaviour of this polymer. This is shown both in the dynamic oscillatory measurements and in the flow through the stepped capillaries (Chauveteau, 1981). When simple models of random chains are constructed, such as the Rouse model (Rouse, 1953 Bird et al, 1987), the internal structure of these bead and spring models gives rise to a spectrum of relaxation times, Analysis of this situation shows that these relaxation times define response times for the molecule, as indicated in the simple Maxwell model for a viscoelastic fluid discussed above. Thus, because of the internal structure of a flexible coil molecule, one would expect to observe some viscoelastic behaviour. This phenomenon is discussed in much more detail by Bird et al (1987b), in which a range of possible molecular models are discussed and the significance of these to the constitutive relationship between stress and deformation rate and deformation history is elaborated. [Pg.65]
