dc.description.abstract | We present a differential constitutive model of stress relaxation in polydisperse linear polymer melts and solutions that contains contributions from reptation, contour-length fluctuations, and chain stretching. The predictions of the model during fast start-up and steady shear flows of polymer melts are in accord with experimental observations. Moreover, in accordance with reported experimental literature (Osaki et al. in J Polym Sci B Polym Phys 38:2043–2050, 2000), the model predicts, for a range of shear rates, two overshoots in shear stress during start-up of steady shear flows of bidisperse polymer melts having components with widely separated molar masses. Two overshoots result only when the stretch or Rouse relaxation time of the higher molar mass component is longer than the terminal relaxation time of the lower molar mass component. The “first overshoot” is the first to appear with increasing shear rate and occurs as a result of the stretching of longer chains. Transient stretching of the short chains is responsible for the early time second overshoot. The model predictions in steady and transitional extensional flows are also remarkable for both monodisperse and bidisperse polymer solutions. The computationally efficient differential model can be used to predict rheology of commercial polydisperse polymer melts and solutions. | en_US |
