Abstract:SYNOPSISThe organization of the hexagonal structure of some block8copolymerslhas beenobtained directly from the melt. We have pointed out the temperature and shear conditions which give a well-organized and oriented structure. In order to represent the viscous and elastic behavior of the melt, we have drawn flow curves and have measured the die swell ratio. A flow mechanism, corresponding to grain structure, is proposed. The results obtained enabled us to build a molding device. Fracture tests under tension on… Show more
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.
