Transient uniaxial elongational viscosities for Blend1, Blend2 and Blend3 from top to bottom. The strain rates (from left to right) are 0.3, 0.1, 0.03, 0.01 and 0.003 s−1 for Blend1, 0.1, 0.03, 0.01, 0.003 and 0.001 s−1 for Blend2, and 0.3, 0.1, 0.03, 0.01, 0.003 and 0.001 s−1 for Blend3, respectively. Unfilled circle is the data measured by Nielsen et al. [5] (the data for Blend2 were taken from van Ruymbeke et al. [11]). Red and blue solid curves are simulation results with and without SORF. Black dotted curve is the linear viscoelastic envelope for the simulation.
