Mechanism of Shear Thickening in Reversibly Cross-Linked Supramolecular Polymer Networks

Craig, Stephen (AMER CHEMICAL SOC, 2010)

We report here the nonlinear rheological properties of metallo-supramolecular networks formed by the reversible cross-linking of semidilute unentangled solutions of poly(4-vinylpyridine) (PVP) in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO). ...
Multiple Dynamic Processes Contribute to the Complex Steady Shear Behavior of Cross-Linked Supramolecular Networks of Semidilute Entangled Polymer Solutions

Craig, Stephen (AMER CHEMICAL SOC, 2010)

Molecular theories of shear thickening and shear thinning in associative polymer networks are typically united in that they involve a single kinetic parameter that describes the network - a relaxation time that is related ...
