TL;DR: Theological properties of polymers in the liquid state have been investigated in this paper, where a qualitative description of a rheological experiment which demonstrates the mechanical response of a polymers as well as introduces some of the essential phenomena which need to be explained.
Abstract: Polymers are materials worthy of study both because of their unique properties and because of their common occurrence in industrial products and in biological systems. The attention focused on them has been rewarded by an increased amount of success in establishing the relationships between their complex physical properties and their molecular structure. This article is concerned with a particular aspect of these investigations, the Theological properties of polymers in the liquid state. There has been an increase of activity in this field during the last fifteen years, which is the period covered by this review. The interested reader is directed to earlier reviews and articles that discuss related subject material. We begin with a qualitative description of a rheological experiment which demonstrates the mechanical response of polymers as well as introduces some of the essential phenomena which need to be explained. When a small shearing force is applied to a high-molecular-weight polymer liquid...

TL;DR: The Early Cretaceous Hohhot metamorphic core complex of the Daqing Shan (Mtns) of central Inner Mongolia is among the best exposed and most spectacular of the spatially isolated mccs that developed within the northern edge of the North China “craton” as mentioned in this paper.
Abstract: The Early Cretaceous Hohhot metamorphic core complex (mcc) of the Daqing Shan (Mtns.) of central Inner Mongolia is among the best exposed and most spectacular of the spatially isolated mcc’s that developed within the northern edge of the North China “craton”. All of these mcc’s were formed within the basement of a Late Paleozoic Andean-style arc and across older Mesozoic fold-and-thrust belts of variable age and tectonic vergence. The master Hohhot detachment fault roots southwards within the southern margin of the Daqing Shan for an along-strike distance of at least 120 km. Its geometry in the range to the north is complicated by interference patterns between (1) primary, large-scale NW-SE-trending convex and concave fault corrugations and (2) secondary ENE-WSW-trending antiforms and synforms that folded the detachment in its late kinematic history. As in the Whipple Mtns. of California, the Hohhot master detachment is not of the Wernicke (1981) simple rooted type; instead, it was spawned from a mid-crustal shear zone, the top of which is preserved as a mylonitic front within Carboniferous metasedimentary rocks in its exhumed lower plate. 40 Ar– 39 Ar dating of siliceous volcanic rocks in basal sections of now isolated supradetachment basins suggest that crustal extension began at ca. 127 Ma, although lower-plate mylonitic rocks were not exposed to erosion until after ca. 119 Ma. Essentially synchronous cooling of hornblende, biotite, and muscovite in footwall mylonitic gneisses indicates very rapid exhumation and at ca. 122–120 Ma. Contrary to several recent reports, the master detachment clearly cuts across and dismembers older, north-directed thrust sheets of the Daqing Shan foreland fold-and-thrust belt. Folded and thrust-faulted basalts within its foredeep strata are as young as 132.6 ± 2.4 Ma, thus defining within 5–6 Ma the regional tectonic transition between crustal contraction and profound crustal extension.

01 Feb 1991TL;DR: In this paper, the Mannich base condensates of an alkyl substituted hydroxy aromatic compound with formaldehyde and an amine were used as dispersants for oil-soluble lubricating oil additives.
Abstract: The present invention is directed to oil-soluble lubricating oil additives comprising Mannich Base condensates of an alkyl substituted hydroxy aromatic compound with formaldehyde and an amine, wherein the alkyl-moiety of the aromatic compounds is derived from at least one ethylene alpha-olefin copolymer of 300 to 20,000 number average molecular weight, wherein at least about 30% of the polymer's chains contain terminal ethenylidene unsaturation. The Mannich Base condensates of this invention are useful as dispersants.

31 May 1984TL;DR: In this paper, a method of drilling and cementing a well using a novel drilling fluid convertible in place by extrinsic application of heat into a settable cement slurry and composition therefor is presented.
Abstract: A method of drilling and cementing a well using a novel drilling fluid convertible in place by the extrinsic application of heat into a settable cement slurry and composition therefor. The novel drilling fluid comprises an aqueous drilling mud containing in intimate admixture therewith cement and a thermally deactivatable deflocculant which prevents the cement from setting while the fluid is being used as a drilling mud. The method comprises drilling a well with a rotary bit through which the novel drilling fluid is circulated; suspending a casing in the well; removing the fluid from inside the casing; and applying sufficient extrinsic heat to the fluid in place in the annulus of the well to deactivate the deflocculant, thereby converting the fluid in place into a settable cement slurry.
