Caracterization and modelization of the rheological behavior of pressure sensitive adhesives: the case of block copolymers based on acrylate matrix.
Résumé
Styrene/n-Bu acrylate (nBA) and Me methacrylate (MMA)/nBA 'soft' block copolymers were investigated. The rheol. properties of a series of homopolymers were detd. according to the mol. wt. of the polymer, and models of these properties were developed. Strong links were obsd. between the phys.-chem. properties, the microstructure and the rheol. properties of these block copolymers. [on SciFinder(R)]
