description

The viscosities of two structurally different perfluoropolyether fluids were determined at a series of temperatures and pressures, from 25 to 100°C and from 1 to 1000 bars. Flow activation energies and volumes as well as their temperature and pressure coefficients were derived. An attempt was made to relate measured and derived quantities to the compound structures.
