Optimized derivatives rheology

Coatings formulations based on water borne polymers usually depend on specific ingredients for rheological profile adjustment and overall properties optimization. There is a large variety of additives which can be used to modify the rheology of a system. Natural organic derivatives (e.g. cellulose ethers) have been traditionally used in the paint industry and are well established. Synthetic thickeners, on the other hand, have appeared later but quickly became very popular, mostly because of their ease of use (liquid versus solid)... 

The problem of optimal distribution of VE dampers modelled using the rheological models with flactional derivative or using the generalized classical rheological models is solved for the first time.
