Abstract

A novel theoretical approach, which yields a nonlinear differential equation for the mechanical properties of fiber‐filled composites as a function of the volume fraction of the filler and the fiber orientation, is shown. Furthermore, the transfer to polymer solutions is shown and gives a physical explanation for various well‐known empirical relations and numerical values including the Huggins constant and the exponent of power–law molar mass dependence of the polymer melt viscosity.
