Measuring and predicting the dynamics of linear monodisperse entangled polymers in rapid flow through an abrupt contraction: a small angle neutron scattering study

Measuring and predicting the dynamics of linear monodisperse entangled polymers in rapid flow through an abrupt contraction: a small angle neutron scattering study

No === Small-angle neutron scattering measurements on a series of monodisperse linear entangled polystyrene melts in nonlinear flow through an abrupt 4:1 contraction have been made. Clear signatures of melt deformation and subsequent relaxation can be observed in the scattering patterns, which were...
