dc.description.abstract | Bright-field optical observation of supercooled high density polyethylene (HDPE) flowing in a cross-slot multi-pass rheometer (MPR) cell. The geometry generates a flow field with an extensional component at the centreline. If the no slip condition at a solid surface is satisfied, the side walls are high shear rate regions. The appearence of dark regions in the flow denotes the formation of crystals. Flow induced crystallisation occurs during flow at the centreline and near the walls. | |
