The rheological behaviour of polymeric solutions is strongly influenced by the conformation of the polymer. In principle one has to deal with three different conformations, namely (1) random coil polymers (2) semi-flexible rod-like macromolecules and (2) rigid rods. It is easily understood that the hydrody-namically effective volume increases in the sequence mentioned, i.e. molecules with an equal degree of polymerisation exhibit drastically larger viscosities in a rod-like conformation than as statistical coil molecules. An experimental parameter, easily determined, for the conformation of a polymer is the exponent a of the Mark-Houwink relationship [25,26]. In the case of coiled polymers a is between 0.5 and 0.9,semi-flexible rods exhibit values between 1 and 1.3, whereas for an ideal rod the intrinsic viscosity is found to be proportional to M2. [Pg.8]

Ionic cross-linking can be achieved in a number of systems and different microstructures result. For rigid chains it is possible for the ion to coordinate in a specific manner with the chain. Alginates are a good example of this. These are natural polymers derived from a brown macro-algae. The method of extraction and the species of the algae influences the chemistry and hence the rheology of these polymers. There... [Pg.210]

There is a wealth of microstructural models used for describing nonlinear viscoelastic responses. Many of these relate the rheological properties to the interparticle forces and the bulk of these consider the action of continuous shear rate or stress. We will begin with a consideration of the simplest form of potential, a hard rigid sphere. [Pg.229]

At present our understanding of emulsion behaviour is not as well developed as that of particulate or polymer systems. Part of the difficulty in correlating the rheology lies in the high level of characterisation required in order to differentiate between systems as well as the greater difficulty in preparing monodisperse model emulsions than rigid particulate systems. However, this is understandable because emulsion characterisation can be formidable. [Pg.284]

The rheology of many of the systems displayed gel-like viscoelastic features, especially for the long-range attractive interaction potentials, which manifested a non-zero plateau in the shear stress relaxation function, C/t), the so-called equilibrium modulus, which has been considered to be a useful indicator of the presence of a gel. The infinite frequency shear rigidity modulus, was extremely sensitive to the form of the potential. Despite being the most short-... [Pg.34]

It is convenient to distinguish between particle or fluid rotation about axes normal and parallel to the direction of relative motion. These two types of motion may be termed respectively top spin and screw motion (Til). Top spin is of more general importance since this corresponds to particle rotation caused by fluid shear or by collision with rigid surfaces. Workers concerned with suspension rheology and allied topics have concentrated on motion at low Re, while very high Reynolds numbers have concerned aerodynamicists. The gap between these two ranges is wide and uncharted, and we make no attempt to close it here. [Pg.259]

Pons et al. have studied the effects of temperature, volume fraction, oil-to-surfactant ratio and salt concentration of the aqueous phase of w/o HIPEs on a number of rheological properties. The yield stress [10] was found to increase with increasing NaCl concentration, at room temperature. This was attributed to an increase in rigidity of films between adjacent droplets. For salt-free emulsions, the yield stress increases with increasing temperature, due to the increase in interfacial tension. However, for emulsions containing salt, the yield stress more or less reaches a plateau at higher temperatures, after addition of only 1.5% NaCl. [Pg.180]
