Scale-spectrum properties

Damping is an engineering material property and the observed response is much more sensitive to the polymer constitution than in step-function experiments. Oscillatory experiments (also referred to as dynamic mechanical experiments) thus offer a powerful technique to study molecular structure and morphology. A significant feature is the breadth of the time-scale spectrum available with these methods, e.g., 10 -10 cycles/sec.

The dynamics of highly diluted star polymers on the scale of segmental diffusion was first calculated by Zimm and Kilb [143] who presented the spectrum of eigenmodes as it is known for linear homopolymers in dilute solutions [see Eq. (77)]. This spectrum was used to calculate macroscopic transport properties, e.g. the intrinsic viscosity [145], However, explicit theoretical calculations of the dynamic structure factor [S(Q, t)] are still missing at present. Instead of this the method of first cumulant was applied to analyze the dynamic properties of such diluted star systems on microscopic scales.
