Rheology is the science of studying the flow and deformation of materials rooted in the laws of elasticity and viscosity proposed by Hooke and Newton in the late 17 th Century. Thermoplastic polymer ...
Flow curve in order to determine the plateau value of the vis­cosity performing a shear rate controlled flow curve at low enough shear rates in steady state.. The standard tests for measuring the Zero ...
Rheological testing of thermoplastic materials can be carried out on both melts and solid samples. Issues related to process ability can be correlated with polymer melt properties, or problems ...
