The theory of polymer processing is essentially a part of solid state mechanics. It basically consists of the theoretical and experimental investigation of motion and different physical-chemical processes in deformable viscoelastic systems. With this approach we could regard the great variety of known processing methods as a complex of separate problems the solution of each of which could be regarded as a particular example of the integration of a closed system of differential equations of motion under suitably specified initial and boundary conditions. This approach would enable us to examine in theoretical terms, and from a quite general viewpoint, the wide variety of phenomena which occur in processing machines including phase changes and chemical reactions.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
