A detailed test of the Rouse model has been performed on a nonentangled 1,4- cis -poly(isoprene) (PI) by investigating the end-to-end vector dynamics by means of broadband dielectric spectroscopy. The contribution to the dielectric relaxation of the end-to-end vector dynamics was determined by subtracting the signal f…

The retardation of the interfacial velocity due to the presence of surface-active species is a key feature that determines the magnitude of the dynamic interaction force between colliding bubbles. Here we derive simple measures to quantify the influence of a surface-active species during a head-on collision between bu…
