Elongational Behaviour and Molecular Structure of Polymer Melts

  • Conference paper

Abstract

Many processing operations of polymer melts are governed by elongational flow. It is widely accepted today that elongational properties of polymer melts particularly in the non-linear regime of deformation which is dominant in processing cannot be derived from their linear behaviour. Therefore, the importance of rheological measurements in elongation is obvious. On the other hand, the molecular structure of polymers influences their elongational properties in a complex way not completely understood up to now.
