Description
Shear viscosity, extensional relaxation time, and spray angle data for polycyclooctadiene (PCOD) dissolved in decahydronaphthalene (decalin) and polyalphaolefin (PAO) solvents with nonassociative and associative end-groups.
Data appear in publication "Mist-control of polyalphaolefin (PAO) lubricants using long pairwise end-associative polymers" by Red C. Lhota, Robert W. Learsch, Jacob Temme, Vincent Coburn, and Julia A. Kornfield (doi: https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jnnfm.2024.105197).
Included in the root folder is a Pipfile for producing a virtual environment in which to run the included .py files. Each subfolder contains the following folders as appropriate: data (.csv files that contain the data used), code (.py file(s) needed to produce plots from the data), plots (example plots produced by the .py files), and output (processed data produced by included .py files)
Folders:
- Intrinsic Viscosity and Overlap Concentration: intrinsic viscosity and overlap concentration for nonassociative PCOD dissolved in decalin and PAO derived from zero-concentration extrapolation of specific viscosity of low concentration solutions (produced Figure 2 in corresponding paper)
- Shear Rate Dependence: specific viscosity as a function of shear rate for nonassociative and associative solutions of PCOD in decalin and PAO (produced Figure SI6 in Supporting Information)
- Specific Viscosity and Extensional Relaxation Time: specific viscosity and extensional relaxation time for nonassociative and associative solutions of PCOD in decalin and PAO (produced Figures 3,4, and SI7)
- Spray Angle: spray angle and resulting calculated values for nonassociative and associative solutions of PCOD in PAO (produced Figures 6 and 9, Table 2)
