| Summary: | For many years, rheology has been used as semi-quantitative tools in polymer science and engineering. Rheology is the study of deformation and flow of matter under stress. The aspect involves in rheological study are yield stress, viscoelastic effects, memory effects, and shear thickening and thinning. The rheology for simple fluid involves the measurement of viscosity whereby it depends primarily upon the temperature and hydrostatic pressure. Polymer is much complex because polymeric fluids show non-ideal and complex shear viscosity behaviour. The previous work is concerned with experimental result of rheological properties of partially hydrolyzed polyacrylamide(HPAM) in aqueous with different experimental condition such as polymer concentration, temperature and shear rate applied. For further improvement, the rheological properties of partially hydrolyzed polyacrylamide is studied with different concentration varied from lower to an extreme concentration under normal room temperature focused on the storage and loss modulus of the polymer solution.
Chapter 1 give an introduction on the background of the project where the problem statement addressing the main purpose and significance of this research, as well as its objective and scope of study will be presented. A brief literature review illustrating some previous researches regarding rheology of polymer solutions, as well as the concept and underlying principles of the project will be explained in chapter 2. Finally in the last chapter, the research methodology showing the experimental approach as well as the key milestones will be presented to give an overview of the entire research project. |
