Abstract
Extensional viscosity of a low-density polyethylene was measured at three temperatures in uniaxial extension by Sentmanat Extension Rheometer, and in contraction flow using the Cogswell analysis. The molecular stress function model was applied to describe the experimental results. The achieved maximum values from uniaxial transient tests were in accordance with the ones obtained by Cogswell method at similar strain level, and the molecular stress function model was able to describe the experimental transient uniaxial extensional data. The steady-state extensional viscosity was not reached in the experiments.
