There is a strong link between what is called the weight-average molecular weight of a polymer and a parameter called the zero-shear viscosity. Although the correct link rather depends on the polymer, ...
Thermoplastics are processed in the molten state, their final shape and internal structure are established by cooling, and they can be softened and reshaped by reapplication of heat and pressure. Also ...
Rheology is the study of the flow and deformation of materials under applied forces, covering both liquids and solids. It examines how materials respond to stress, strain or flow, revealing ...
In this study, researchers evaluated the colloidal microcrystalline cellulose (cMCC) suspending agent—a co-processed material of microcrystalline cellulose and sodium carboxymethyl cellulose ...
They were developing a new container-filling process for one of their customers, but the material they needed to move was no ordinary liquid. It was a thick, non-Newtonian polymer, so viscous that at ...
Worm cocktail: photograph of the experimental apparatus showing the sludge worms. (Courtesy: Antoine Deblais) Clumps of wriggling – and sometimes drunken – sludge worms have been used by physicists in ...
An international research team is attracting the attention of experts in the field with computational results on the behavior of ring polymers under shear forces: They showed that for the simplest ...
