- Additional information
- This paper describes a completely new method for determining and correcting for the effect of thermal degradation in rheological measurements on thermally sensitive polymers. Due to the increasing use of degradable polymers, in both packaging and medical applications, this is a major step forward in allowing for a more detailed understanding of the structure and flow properties.
