Abstract:
We extend the previous work by Benallal et al. on the relationship between structure and rheological properties of linear polymer melts. The aim of this paper is to quantify the effect of the chemical structure on the viscoelastic properties. We show that these properties are governed by the monomer dimensions and the interaction energy. To cite this article: A. Allal et al., C. R. Physique 3 (2002) 1451–1458.
