    Notes: Abstract A bicomponent coextrusion process is modelled using a 3-D finite element formulation. The layer uniformity problem in coextrusion is addressed by examining the effects of the polymer melt/polymer melt/die wall contact line boundary condition. It has been observed that the less viscous polymer layer will tend to displace the more viscous polymer layer near the die wall. The behaviour of the contact lisle is considered to be either a “stick” or “slip” boundary condition. In the “stick” boundary condition, the contact line does not move from its original position after the two polymer layers meet, A slip boundary condition allows the contact line to move along the die wall. The calculated interfaces which result from different contact line assumptions are determined. Results show that if a “stick” boundary condition is appropriate for a given fluid/fluid/solid contact line, then a very thin entrained layer of the more viscous polymer melt will be trapped between the less viscous polymer melt and the die wall. Slip boundary conditions would allow complete displacement of the contact line along the die wall. Both slip and stick boundary conditions produce similar interface profiles far away from the die wall for small viscosity ratios. In certain eases, the displacement of the more viscous material by the less viscous material will cease and a static interface structure is produced regardless of die length. Experimental work with polycarbonate melts is compared with the numerical simulations.

    Notes: Grafting one type polymer onto a different polymer type may yield a comb-branched copolymer. The branching density has a significant effect on its overall molecular weight distribution. A general model is derived to describe the bivariate distribution of molecular weight and branching density for such comb copolymers. The model is applicable for various grafting mechanisms provided the side chains are randomly grafted onto the backbone. The determining parameters are the molecular weight distributions of backbone and side chains, and the branching density. Analytical expressions are obtained for the cases of the side chains having uniform and Schulz-Zimm distributions. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. J Polym Sci B: Polym Phys 36: 705-714, 1998
