VISCOSITY OF CRITICAL MIXTURES

Abstract

Measurements of the viscosity of critical mixtures were extended to high polymer solutions (polystyrene-cyclohexane). An anomaly is found in the temperature coefficient of the viscosity. An empirical expression for the viscosities of critical mixtures as a function of delta T/T sub c (delta T equals T - T sub c; T sub c is the critical temperature) is erived. (Au hor)
