| Abstract: | The results of the theory presented in part I are compared to already published flow birefringence data obtained with dilute up to semi-dilute solutions of polyethylene oxide which have also shown shear thickening effects. The agreement with the theory is quite good so that the reversible formation of associations in flow seems to be a process which has to be taken in account for high molecular weight flexible macromolecules solutions in relatively poor solvents. |
