• Sommario/riassunto: This book covers in great detail the Rouse-segment-based molecular theories in polymer viscoelasticity - the Rouse theory and the extended reptation theory (based on the framework of the Doi-Edwards theory) - that have been shown to explain experimental results in a consistently quantitative way. The explanation for the 3.4 power law of viscosity, quantitative line-shape analyses of viscoelastic responses and agreements between different sorts of viscoelastic responses, the consistency between the viscoelasticity and diffusion results, the clarification of the onset of entangelement,
