Figure 6.
(a) Plot of the terminal flow times τt of the lower Mn samples, alongside the slower process time and α process time and their lines of best fit. (b) Plot of the entanglement onset times τe of the higher Mn samples. (c) Plot of characteristic times as a function of ϕOAPS, normalized by the time scale of the ϕOAPS = 0.00 sample. Solid lines and dashed lines are fits to the slower process time and the α process time, respectively. (d) Plot of normalized τslower, τα, and τη as a function of ϕOAPS for unentangled/weakly entangled samples. Note that across all analyses, nanocomposite compositions that display rheological gelation are excluded.
