PAN Yan, CHENG Rongshi. THE VISCOSITY ANOMALY OF POLYMER MIXTURE SOLUTION IN EXTREMELY DILUTE CONCENTRATION REGION[J]. Acta Polymerica Sinica, 2000,(4):518-520.DOI:
The measured reduced viscosity-concentration (ηsp/c-c) curves of miscible PPO/PS、 immiscible PMMA/PS mixtures with different composition in toluene all deviate from linear and reveal downward turn in extremely dilute concentration region. Moreover
in the extremely dilute concentration region
the ηsp/c-c curve of immiscible PVC/PS mixture solution shows upward turn in THF
while shows downward turn in DCE. These experimental facts indicate that such viscosity anomaly is not dependent of miscibility
but resulted from wall effects.Regarding the polymer mixture as a single solute
the interference of wall effects on viscosity measurement could be eliminated quantitativle with a proposed theoretical formula. After corrected
the true viscosity data of mixture shows normal linear ηsp/c-c curve in the dilute and extremely dilute concentration region.
