Flow field visualization of entangled polybutadiene solutions under nonlinear viscoelastic flow conditions

Using self-designed particle visualization instrumentation, startup shear and step-strain tests were conducted under a series of systematically varied rheological and geometrical conditions, and the velocity profiles in three different well-entangled polybutadiene/oligomer solutions were obtained. F...
