โœฆ Synopsis

The effect of shear flow on the excluded volume properties of bead spring chains is calculated via the perturbation expansion of the mean-square end-to-end distance with respect to the excluded volume parameter z. The coefficient of the series (Rz)/(Rz)o = 1 + C, . z -. . . vanishes for large flow rates but shows a strong dependence on the shear rate in the intermediate regime.

Beginning with a recently proposed expression for the drag force on a single macromolecule pulled with constant velocity through a fluid of long-entangled molecules (V. R. Mhetar and L. A. Archer, Macromolecules 1998, 31, 6639), we investigate the effect of entanglement loss on polymer dynamics in s
