Fibre Chemistry Aims and scope

Conclusions

A procedure has been developed for identifying and discriminating between competing viscosity models from experimental data, plus a complex of programs for identifying models and discriminating between competing hypotheses.

For the systems poly-p-phenyleneterephthalmaide-sulfuric acid (96.3 or 99.3%), the best results in prediction were given by the Martin model [K5=0.435 (0.36)] and the Budatov model [K7=0.16 (0.21)]; the temperature for both of the investigated systems was 274.25°K.

In the investigated concentration region, a linear dependence is observed between ηsp and [η], which is convenient for transition from specific viscosity to inherent viscosity. Adequate equations for expressing this relationship have been obtained from the experimental data.
