Self-Diffusion, Viscosity and Spin-Spin Relaxation in Liquid Poly(Propylene Oxide) Melts
Self-diffusion, viscosity and spin-spin relaxation have been measured for a series of low molecular weight liquid poly(propylene oxide) melts. The data are discussed within the framework of theories commonly invoked for polymer dynamics including the Rouse chain and free volume effects. The average diffusion coefficients of a range of bimodal blends have also been measured and the results interpreted using the Rouse model.
