Abstract:

A series of rotary rheological experiments were conducted for high?impact polystyrene (PS?HI) under different temperatures to analyze the precision of conventional obtained from usually used viscous models. Then, a flow theory based on Phan?Thien Tanner (PTT) model was established and the corresponding algorithm was constructed to study the viscoelastic characteristics of rubber?like state PS?HI. Both theoretical and numerical results indicated that the Cross and Carreau?Yasuda models could describe the rheological characteristics of PS?HI better compared to other viscous models. The viscoelastic PTT model exhibited a significant improvement in precision, indicating that PS?HI presented some elasticity in the rubber?like state.
