Dynamic modulus of polyisobutylene solutions in superposed steady shear flow

Rheologica Acta Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Summary

Measurements are reported for the first time of the effect on the dynamic modulus of a viscoelastic liquid of the superposition of a steady shearing orthogonal to the oscillatory shearing. The author believes that the study of this flow, together with the case of parallel superposition of a steady and an oscillatory shearing, will clarify the importance of the second invariant of the rate of deformation tensor used in a number of rheological equations of state for viscoelastic liquids. 8.54, 6.86 and 5.39% solutions of polyisobutylene in cetane were studied using a recently developed electromagnetic transducer over the frequency range 0.3 to 150 c.p.s. Preliminary experiments on the orthogonal superposition of two oscillatory shear flows are also reported.

Zusammenfassung

Erstmalig werden Messungen über den Einfluß der Superposition von stationärer und dazu in senkrechter Richtung periodischer Scherung auf den dynamischen Modul viskoelastischer Stoffe mitgeteilt. Der Verfasser glaubt, daß derartige Messungen neben den Messungen in einem periodischen Scherfeld, worüber parallel ein stationäres Scherfeld überlagert ist, die Bedeutung der 2. Invarianten des Deformationsgeschwindigkeitstensors, die in einigen Theologischen Zustandsgleichungen auftritt, klärt. Isobuthylenlösungen in Cetan der Konzentration 8,54; 6,86 und 5,39% wurden mittels eines neu entwickelten Dynamometers in dem Frequenzbereich 0,3 bis 150 Hz untersucht und vorläufige Messungen in den senkrecht zueinander superponierten periodischen Scherfeldern mitgeteilt.
