## Abstract A conceptual model is proposed for the viscoelastic response of dilute polymer solutions containing wellβdispersed low volume fraction spherical particles. The equilibrium structure of the reversibly adsorbed polymer layer on the particle surface was characterized by a scaling theory. T
The viscosity behavior of suspensions flocculated by bridging was examined as a function of adsorption affinity of polymers for the particle surface. The polymer chains having strong affinity form fragile bridges between particles as a result of irreversible adsorption. Because the flocs are broken
