## Abstract The anomaly of shear thickening at high shear rates can be observed under certain conditions for high molecular weight polymers dissolved in lowβviscosity Newtonian solvents despite the fact that shearβthinning behavior is considered the norm for these fluids. The nature of the shearβth
A previously derived general equation, correlating the intrinsic viscosity of a polymer with -~'n, ~w and 2~,, is tested with experimental data. Its application for the calculation of average molecular weights is discussed. Good results have been obtained for the calculation of 2f/" z using experime
