Abstract
At various places in previous chapters we have discussed molecular theories of polymer melt rheology and the relationship of rheological parameters to molecular structure characteristics such as molecular weight. This chapter presents, for convenience of reference, some useful relationships in summary form. While there is some duplication of material given earlier, it is felt that the reader will find this useful. Numerical values of parameters are presented in the text to illustrate principles, but extensive tables of data are not given. References are given to literature in which data compilations are available.
