[交流] 《Rheology of Filled Polymer Systems》

Rheology of Filled Polymer Systems
By A.V. Shenoy

Publisher: Springer
Number Of Pages: 492
Publication Date: 1999-12-31

The rheology of filled polymer systems is an ever expanding field in the polymer industry today. Using a concise, practical and simple format this comprehensive work explains the concepts behind filled polymer systems and the rheological techniques involved in studying their behaviour. Aware that the readers of the book may come from differing background, the first three chapters familiarize the reader with the basics about polymers, fillers and physicochemical interactions between them, rheology and rheometry. Covering such topics as preparation of filled polymer systems, steady shear viscous properties and extentional flow properties, this book covers the areas of importance from an introductory level through to more complex issues.

Book Review - Rheology of Filled Polymer Systems Aroon V. Shenoy

Kluwer Academic Publishers ISBN 0-412-83100-7

As a researcher in the area of particulate-filled composites I am continually looking for good books on this subject. Such books are hard to find, possibly because the topic is so multi-disciplinary that few authors manage to bring together the knowledge from polymer science (processing, stability, mechanical properties), surface science (dispersion, wetting, surface-treatment) and rheology (compounding and processing).

One area where it is especially difficult to find good information is that of filled polymer rheology. This topic is vital to understanding the behaviour of a filled polymer melt. For example, extruder throughput and mould filling during injection moulding are critical factors that must be understood when formulating a good particulate-filled polymer composite. I have found it hard to understand most texts on filled polymer rheology and therefore I was relieved when I read this book. The author must be congratulated on having presented such a complex field in a focussed and interesting way. All aspects of rheological measurement techniques are covered. First of all is an introduction to the rheological behaviour of un-filled polymers. Basic rheological concepts are presented followed by a comparison of the different measurement techniques. Steady shear and unsteady shear are both treated in detail where the author highlights the trends such as the influence of particle size, shape, distribution, concentration and surface treatment. Another chapter discusses the different types of polymer processing equipment and their relative merits and drawbacks for preparing polymer composites.

One especially intriguing section shows that even MFI data, which is simple and inexpensive to obtain, can be used as a powerful tool for estimating the rheological response of a filled polymer melt. The author shows that just by knowing the MFI and the Tg of the polymer, it is possible to calculate an approximate rheological response of the filled polymer melt. This estimation has sufficient accuracy to be of use in predicting the flow behaviour of the filled polymer melt during processing. Thus, even the humble MFI technique is shown to be a powerful tool and I expect that Shenoy's Unification approach will prove useful for many people, including myself.

I highly recommend this book to anyone interested in filled polymers. It is clearly written by someone with an excellent grasp of the subject. The text is concise and easy to read whilst the content is well organized and interesting.
