We investigate a variety of different semidilute polymer solutions in shear and elongational flow. The shear flow is created in the cone-plate-geometry of a commercial rheometer. We use capillary thinning of a filament that is formed by a polymer solution in the Capillary Breakup Extensional Rheometer (CaBER) as an elongational flow. We compare the relaxation time measured in the CaBER with relaxation times based on the first normal stress difference and the zero shear polymer viscosity that we measure in our rheometer. All of these three measurable quantities depend on different fluid parameters the viscosity of the solvent, the polymer concentration within the solution, and the molecular weight of the polymers and on the shear rate (in the shear flow measurements). Nevertheless, we find that the first normal stress coefficient depends quadratically on the CaBER relaxation time. Several scaling laws are presented that could help to explain this empirical relation. (C) 2010 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
