“…The elongational rheological modellings of this study were conducted on different grades of low-density polyethylene (LDPE) melts previously characterized and tested by Bastian (2001), Rolón-Garrido et al (2013) and Pivokonsky et al (2006), as well as long-chain branched polypropylene (LCB-PP) melt characterized by Wagner et al (2006). Tables 1, 2 and 3 display the weight average molecular weight (M w ), number average molecular weight (M n ), polydispersity index (M w /M n ), melting temperature (T m ), room temperature density (ρ RT ), testing temperature density (ρ T ), activation energy (E a ), dilution modulus G D obtained by modelling of the elongational data and the linear viscoelastic relaxation spectrum of LDPE I to LDPE VI at their testing temperature.…”
