We report a set of viscoelastic measurements in concentrated aqueous solutions of a copolyrner micellar system with short-range inter-micellar attractive interactions, a colloidal system characterized, in different regions of the composition-temperature phase diagram, by the existence of a percolation line (PT) and a kinetic glass transition (KGT). Both these transitions cause dramatic changes in the system viscoelasticity. Whereas the observed variations of the shear moduli at the PT are described in terms of percolation models, for the structural arrest at the KGT we investigate the frequency-dependent shear modulus behaviours by using a mode coupling theory (MCT) approach.

Abstract

We report a set of viscoelastic measurements in concentrated aqueous solutions of a copolyrner micellar system with short-range inter-micellar attractive interactions, a colloidal system characterized, in different regions of the composition-temperature phase diagram, by the existence of a percolation line (PT) and a kinetic glass transition (KGT). Both these transitions cause dramatic changes in the system viscoelasticity. Whereas the observed variations of the shear moduli at the PT are described in terms of percolation models, for the structural arrest at the KGT we investigate the frequency-dependent shear modulus behaviours by using a mode coupling theory (MCT) approach.
