Abstract

It goes almost without saying that there is a great interest in any quantitative interrelation between molecular parameters like chain stiffness or molecular mass distribution on one hand and rheological properties under varying conditions on the other hand. This interest is certainly not particularly characteristic for fundamentalists, it is shared by a great number of industrialists. A modern trend goes in the direction of producing polymer grades, the so-called tailored resins, for very specific purposes. In this connection manufacturers want to know how a molecular mass distribution has to be fashioned in order to realize a certain specific rheological effect such as strain hardening during extension. Even with general purpose grades questions can arise, which must be solved in terms of more or less pronounced adaptations in the chemical structure of the polymer. In particular, insufficiently defined long chain branching has been discussed as a source of variations in processing performance.
