Interfacial slip in sheared polymer blends.
We have developed a dynamic self-consistent field theory, without any adjustable parameters, for unentangled polymer blends under shear. Our model accounts for the interaction between polymers, and enables one to compute the evolution of the local rheology, microstructure, and the conformations of the polymer chains under shear self-consistently. We use this model to study the interfacial dynam...
متن کاملSlip, concentration fluctuations and flow instability in sheared polymer solutions
Recent experiments suggest that shear-enhanced growth of concentration fluctuations in polymer solutions is strongly influenced by solid boundaries. We analyze the dynamics of a model of a sheared polymer solution, accounting for the effect of stress variations on mass flux and for wall-slip. If (and only if) these effects are present, the flow exhibits a boundary-localized instability consiste...
متن کاملInterfacial segregation in polymer blends driven by acid-base interactions.
Infrared-visible sum frequency generation spectroscopy (SFG) was used to measure the interfacial concentrations of poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA)/polystyrene (PS) blends next to a sapphire substrate. The acid-base interactions of carbonyl groups of PMMA with the hydroxyl groups on the sapphire drive the interfacial segregation of PMMA next to the sapphire substrate. Using the shift of sapphir...
متن کاملInterfacial slip in entrained soap films containing associating hydrosoluble polymer.
Frankel's law predicts that the thickness of a Newtonian soap film entrained at small capillary number scales as Ca2/3 provided the bounding surfaces are rigid. Previous studies have shown that soap films containing low concentrations of high molecular weight (Mw) polymer can exhibit strong deviations from this scaling at low Ca, especially for associating surfactant-polymer solutions. We repor...
متن کاملMolecular origin and dynamic behavior of slip in sheared polymer films.
The behavior of the slip length in thin polymer films subject to planar shear is investigated using molecular dynamics simulations. At low shear rates, the slip length extracted from the velocity profiles correlates well with that computed from a Green-Kubo analysis. Beyond chain lengths of about N=10, the molecular weight dependence of the slip length is dominated strongly by the bulk viscosit...
