Journal ArticleDOI
The rheology of solutions of associating polymers: Comparison of experimental behavior with transient network theory
TL;DR: The properties of aqueous solutions of model HEUR associative thickeners under dynamic and steady shear have been studied as a function of concentration, molecular weight, temperature, and hydrophobic end-cap length as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Influence of surfactants on the rheology of associating polymers in solution
Journal ArticleDOI
Network formation and its consequences for the physical behaviour of associating polymers in solution
TL;DR: The physical properties of hydrophobically modified polyurethane thickeners have been studied in solution as discussed by the authors, showing that the concentration dependence of the shear modulus of such solutions can be described by a simple model in which there is an interplay between chains taking up loop and link configurations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Thermodynamics of phase separation in mixtures of associating polymers and homopolymers in solution
Tom Annable,Rammile Ettelaie +1 more
TL;DR: The phase behavior of mixtures of a hydrophobically modified polymer capable of forming associations and an unmodified polymer of the same chemical composition has been investigated in this paper, where the associative thickener (AT) consists of poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) end-capped at both ends with hydrophobic alkane groups.
Journal ArticleDOI
Adsorption of Small Cationic Nanoparticles onto Large Anionic Particles from Aqueous Solution: A Model System for Understanding Pigment Dispersion and the Problem of Effective Particle Density
S. M. North,Elizabeth R. Jones,Gregory N. Smith,Oleksandr O. Mykhaylyk,Tom Annable,Steven P. Armes +5 more
TL;DR: Reversible addition–fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) alcoholic dispersion polymerization was used to synthesize sterically stabilized diblock copolymer nanoparticles, which acquired cationic character when transferred from ethanol to water as a result of protonation of the weakly basic PDMA chains.
