Abstract
The material functions, viscosity η, the first normal stress function N1, dynamic shear moduli G′ & G″ from sinusoidal oscillatory measurements and the transient responses of stress build up and stress decay in step flow were investigated experimentally for solutions of poly-p-phenylene terephthalamide in H2SO4 at concentrations from 0.5 to 10 wt.-% covering the phase transition from isotropic to nematic LCP solutions at 8 % where all mentioned properties change abruptly. General analytical forms have been found for η and η* functions. LCP solutions show high value of N1 which builds up at shear strain larger than the yield value of 2. The structural origin for the observed rheological properties are discussed.
