Microscopic viscoelastic, and bulk property analyses of the fusion process of plastisols found that the viscoelastic analysis is a facile and sensitive tool for determining gelation and fusion characteristics. The viscoelastic measurements can be used to gauge the effects of molecular weight, different plasticizers, and percent vinyl acetate content on the fusion characteristics.
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.
