    Notes: Abstract The linear viscoelastic material functions of linear flexible polymers of uniform length are calculated from the BSW spectrum (Baumgaertel et al., 1990, 1992), and explicit analytic expressions are presented for several of the most common material functions for transient and dynamic experiments. However, numerical calculations are presented whenever needed. The BSW spectrum was determined from experimental G″, G″ data of two sets of molten polymers of narrow molecular weight distribution, polystyrene and polybutadiene. The purpose of the mapping is to show a wide range of viscoelastic behavior which otherwise is not available in such comprehensive form. Experimental check of these predictions is still needed in most cases. Also, some insight into the predictions for the non-linear (including the non-equilibrium) viscoelastic behavior is achieved by studying two particular experiments: the start-up of uniaxial extension at constant rate and the start-up of shear flow at constant rate.

    Notes: Abstract Orientational changes in monodomains of flow-aligning liquid crystals, 4-n-pentyl-4′-cyanobiphenyl and N-(4-methoxybenzylidene)-4-butylaniline, were studied during shear and recovery in a linear shearing device fitted to an optical microscope. Planar alignment (director in the shear plane) allows the study of twist effects and was generated by strong planar anchoring at the walls with orientations in a range of 0–90° with the shear direction. While being held back by the anchoring walls, shear caused the bulk director to rotate towards a steady-state alignment angle in the shear direction (Leslie angle θL). The transient director rotation was observed with conoscopy. It was found that increasing the initial alignment towards the vorticity direction increased the measured θL. Upon stopping the flow, the bulk director returned to its initial state. With initial alignment orientation changing from parallel to perpendicular to the flow direction, the rate of the twist-driven recovery process increases. This rate increase is not seen in the splay-driven recovery which is constant and consistently faster than twist-driven recovery at all orientations studied.
