Notes:
In an earlier paper, a “new” viscoelastic function, log J2 = g{log J1}, was defined. For polymers, the linear viscoelastic behavior of which is characterized by “simple segment movements” in their main transition regions, the following general properties are found: (1) The local maxima of the function for different polymers fall along a straight line width the slope approximately equal to 1.1. (2) A characteristical general shape is noticed for the function after shifting along the straight line and reducing the J1 compliance as regards the “frozen in” compliance J10. (3) J1 reflects the storage and J2, the loss mechanisms of the system. The relation J2/J1 is an expression for the average retardation time.
