Effect of cross-linking reaction

To study the effect of cross-linking reaction on relaxation prcx ess, the transition rates are modified. We note that t of many glass-forming liquids has an identical form as that of the viscosity r. The r of polymer system increases exponentially with time t near the gel point, i.e., r c exp[cXpt] with cCp being the cross-linking reaction rate. Therefore we assume that x exp[(Xp t], as a result, can be modified as...
