Abstract
AbstractResults of our measurements of polystyrene solutions and those reported in the literature demonstrate the common dependence of Graessley's relaxation time on the product of concentration and molecular weight, irrespective of the solvent power and its viscosity, and of temperature. Such behavior is in agreement with the conclusions reached in our previous paper, namely, that the shear stress dependence of viscosity of this polymer in solvents differing considerably in viscosity and solvent power may be unified by plotting relative viscosity against the product of velocity gradient and Rouse's relaxation time.
