Formation of structure for gas-liquid, non-equilibrium polymer media

Abstract

This paper examines the mechanisms of destruction and synthesis for macromolecules, which may be propelled by external acoustic fields in the flows of polymeric liquids containing a large number of gas bubbles. The dynamics of these bubbles is assumed to govern by changing the flow geometry and exciting sound oscillations in the flow. Mechanically-induced kinetic changes in macromolecules (destruction and synthesis of polymer chains) will occur when the bubbles collapse.
