An Analysis of the Influence of the Chemical Composition and Concentration of Components of a Polymer–solvent Mixture on its Forced Elasticity Limit and Viscosity
A calculation scheme has been developed for estimating the forced elasticity limit and viscosity of a system containing a polymer and a solvent (plasticiser). Allowance is made for the chemical structure of the polymer and solvent, the intermolecular interaction between the polymer and solvent, the van der Waals volume and the molecular weight of the repeating unit of the polymer and the solvent molecule, and the solvent concentration. The temperature dependences of viscosity are obtained. The calculation scheme has been computerised and forms a separate option in the ‘Kaskad’ computer program (INEOS).
