Abstract
The altered free volume state (AFVS) approach developed by Kulkarni and Mashelkar has been extended to develop a model for the viscosity of polymer solutions. The effect of polymer concentration, molecular weight and electrolyte concentration is shown to be satisfactorily explained in the framework of AFVS model. The regimes of viscosity behaviour have been defined for the systems investigated and the transitions involved identified. The approach leads to the identification of a surprisingly simple and unique scaling parameter Φ P, which enables excellent concentration-molecular weight superposition.
