“…The free volume theory of Gerhardt et al for the viscoelastic scaling factor a c , which scales the viscosity−shear rate curves for polymer−SCF systems onto the viscosity curve for the pure polymer, was found to be in good agreement with experimental a c values measured by Kwag et al for the PS−CO 2 system. The model is able to accurately predict the effect of the CO 2 concentration on a c .…”

“…The CO 2 polymer‐solution density is calculated using the Sanchez–Lacombe equation of state. The values obtained for the mixture density correspond well with experimental solubility measurements found in the literature 11, 25, 38. The pressure drop across the die and the volumetric flow rate of the mixture are used to determine the apparent viscosity as a function of shear rate using eqs 10–12.…”

“…Both Gendron and Correa and Kwag et al report trends of higher a T 1 , P 1 ,ϕ shift factors than this study. The difference in a T 1 , P ,0 values are a key difference between Kwag et al and this study.…”
