Xpp Model

The double-equation extended Pom-Pom (DXPP) constitutive model is used to study the macro and micro thermorheological behaviors of branched polymer melt. The energy equation is deduced based on a slip tensor. The flow model is constructed based on a weakly-compressible viscoelastic flow model combined with DXPP model, energy equation, and Tait state equation. A hybrid finite element method and finite volume method (FEM/FVM) are introduced to solve the above-mentioned model. The distributions of viscoelastic stress, temperature, backbone orientation, and backbone stretch are given in 4 : 1 planar contraction viscoelastic flows. The effect of Pom-Pom molecular parameters and a slip parameter on thermorheological behaviors is discussed. The numerical results show that the backbones are oriented along the direction of fluid flow in most areas and are spin-oriented state near the wall area with stronger shear of downstream channel. And the temperature alongy=-1is little higher in entropy elastic case than one in energy elastic case. Results demonstrate good agreement with those given in the literatures.

Staining techniques can be used for either the identification of different polymers or for the differentiation of specific morphological domains within a given polymer. To reveal morphological features in nylon 6, we choose a technique based upon diffusion of the staining agent into accessible regions of the polymer.When a crystallizable polymer - such as nylon 6 - is cooled from the melt, lamellae form by chainfolding of the crystallizing long chain macromolecules. The regions between adjacent lamellae represent the less ordered amorphous domains into which stain can diffuse. In this process the lamellae will be “outlined” by the dense stain, giving rise to contrast comparable to that obtained by “negative” staining techniques.If the cooling of the polymer melt proceeds relatively slowly - as in molding operations - the lamellae are usually arranged in a radial manner. This morphology is referred to as spherulitic.

Ductile Shear Deformation

Under influence of ductile shear deformation, granulite facies mineral paragenesis underwent metamorphism and changes in chemical composition. The present paper discusses some changes in chemical composition of garnet in hypers thene_absent felsic gnesiss and of hypersthene in rock in early and late granulite facies undergone increasing ductile shear deformation .In garnet fetsic geniss, band structures were formed because of partial melting and resulted in zoning from massive⟶transitional⟶melanocrate zones in increasing deformed sequence. The electron-probe analyses for garnet in these zones are listed in table 1 . The Table shows that Mno, Cao contents in garnet decrease swiftly from slightly to intensely deformed zones.In slightly and moderately deformed zones, Mgo contents keep unchanged and Feo is slightly lower. In intensely deformed zone, Mgo contents increase, indicating a higher temperature. This is in accord with the general rule that Mgo contents in garnet increase with rising temperature.
