Rheology of Filled Polymer Systems pp 243–311Cite as

Steady shear viscous properties

  • Chapter

Abstract

There is extensive literature on the rheology of filled polymer systems [1–75] including reviews [41,42,49] and chapters in a number of books [76–85] . The bulk of the literature deals with rheology of systems in the filler loading range of 20–40% by volume. In the present context, this range will be considered as the low filler loading range and will be referred to thus whenever necessary. Aspects relating to this loading level have been effectively reviewed by Utracki and Fisa [41]. The filler loading range between 40 to about 60% by volume will be referred to here as the high filler loading range. A review of the rheology of highly filled polymer melt systems is also available [82]. The enhanced interest in the rheology of highly filled polymer systems is the intended use of the polymers as binders during ceramic processing [48,66–70,73–75] and for the preparation of functional composites [60–63].
