Abstract
We combine a slip-spring model with an 'entangled kink dynamics' (EKD) model for strong uniaxial extensional flows (with Rouse Weissenberg number W i R ≫ 1 ) of long ( M w > 1   Mkg / mol for polystyrene) entangled polymers in solutions and melts. The slip-spring model captures the dynamics up to the formation of a 'kinked' or folded state, while the kink dynamics simulation tracks the dynamics from that point forward to complete extension....
