Studies in Newtonian Flow. III. The Dependence of the Viscosity of Liquids on Molecular Weight and Free Space (in Homologous Series)

Abstract: The free-space concept, previously applied to variation resulting from a change in temperature only, is here adapted to a case where both temperature and molecular weight vary. The molecular weight range of the n-paraffins illustrative of this case is limited to m=100 through m=240. Over this range of molecular weights the family of lines represented by lnη=B(ν0/νf)+lnA intersects the vertical axis at very nearly a common point. By assuming a common intercept and representing the slopes of this family of lines… Show more

“…The WLF relationship has been widely used for modeling the temperature dependent viscosity behavior of various polymers and polymer blends near the T g [49,50]. The WLF relationship also enjoys success in the modeling of dielectric responses and ionic conductivity of various epoxy amine systems [46,47].…”
