Data confidence 70 medium
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

Abstract The data obtained by systematic investigation of structure and molecular characteristics of commercial poly(phenylene sulfone) sample and the results of rheological measurements of properties of its melt at high temperatures and solutions in N-methylpyrrolidone within a wide range of compositions at room temperature are given. The polymer is typical amorphous substance according to its physical nature. The viscosity of solutions does not depend on the shear rate within the range of concentrations lower than 60%. The concentration dependence of viscosity within the whole range of compositions is described by the power law typical of concentrated solutions. The solutions also exhibit viscoelastic properties (the Maxwell model); the bimodal point is observed at polymer concentration of about 20%. The data obtained with rotational and capillary rheometers are in good accordance.
