Abstract

Relaxation properties of linear and network polymers are analyzed on the basis of physical networks.

Two approaches are proposed: a) taking into account the equilibrium concentration of physical crosslinks; b) taking into account the concentration of nonequilibrium physical crosslinks reflecting the nonequilibrium chain conformation and kinetics of their transformation to equilibrium ones. The modulus changing with time and/or temperature is shown to connect with integral function of molar mass distribution of polymer chains.
