Abstract

AbstractThe assumption of Clark and Zimm that coupled dashpots and springs can be used to model the dynamics of polymer molecules is here applied to a model different from that of Clark and Zimm. The precise differences are given in the preceding paper. The dielectric relaxation spectrum of the model is computed in time and frequency domains. The relaxation spectrum can be fitted reasonably well by the empirical Williams–Watts and Havriliak–Negami functions. The best‐fit Williams–Watts and Havriliak–Negami parameters are given as functions of the parameters of the model. The model is compared with several related models found in the literature and possible interpretations are given.
