Development of a Sliding Plate Rheometer to Measure the High Frequency Viscoelastic Properties of Polymer Melts

A newly designed and constructed sliding plate rheometer is used to measure the high frequency (210 Hz) linear viscoelastic properties of two model polymers: polybutene (PB) and polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS). Using well-known rheological models, extrapolations of the viscoelastic measurements obtained...
