Polymer Processing and Rheology II

Thursday, October 20, 2011: 12:30 PM
L100 B (Minneapolis Convention Center)

Description:
This session is coordinated in conjunction with Polymer Processing and Rheology I since there are typically a large number submissions in this area. This session welcomes contributions in all areas of polymer processing and rheology. Topics of interest include the relationships between molecular architecture and rheology, structure development during processing, modeling of polymer processing, the use of rheological measurements to optimize processing, and the influence of processing-induced morphology on product properties.
