Overview

abstract

• The authors present new measurements of the shear viscosity, η, of liquid sulfur from 392 K (118°C) to 436 K (163°C), near the polymerization temperature, TP (432 K, 159°C). The measurements have a precision of 0.1-0.6%25 and an accuracy of 2%25. The authors find an extraordinary sensitivity near TP to trace impurities. Their values of η above TP are an order of magnitude greater than those in the literature. The data can be described by a function constructed on the basis of current theories of polymer solutions and equilibrium polymerization.
