A Nonequilibrium Model for Particle Networking/Jamming and Time-Dependent Dynamic Rheology of Filled Polymers

We describe an approach for modeling the filler network formation kinetics of particle-reinforced rubbery polymers—commonly called filler flocculation—that was developed by employing parallels between deformation effects in jammed particle systems and the influence of temperature...
