Notes:
The Doolittle equation parameter for polymer liquids is a function of temperature. Its dependence on temperature can be expressed by a quadratic equation. The constants in the equation are determined for four vinyl-type polymer liquids: polystyrene (PS), poly(vinyl acetate) (PVAc), polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS), and polyisobutylene (PIB). It was found that the Doolittle parameter decreases with increasing temperature. Equations are presented for the pressure and temperature coefficients of viscosity, isoviscous temperature coefficient of volume, and the constant Km in the Miller equation. Comparisons of the predictions of the equations, with those in the literature, are favorable. © 1993 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
