An analysis of simple shear in a rotating spherical interlayer is presented. The theory provides design criteria and operating equations for a new method of measuring the dynamic mechanical properties of soft viscoelastic polymers. The storage component of the dynamic shear modulus G ′(ω) = 3 F 1 hm 2 /2π r 4 (3 sin ϕ + sin 3 ϕ) (Δ X t − K 1 F 1 ) and the loss tangent than δ = [ F 2 (Δ X t − K 1 F 1 ) − K 2 F 1 F 2 ]/[ F 1 (Δ X t − K 1 F 1 )− K 2 ( F 2 ) 2 ] are expressed in terms of the inner radius r , thickness, h , and are angle ϕ of sample extending from the rotational equator; the biaxial dynamometer compliances K 1 , K 2 ; the imposed dynamometer displacement Δ X t ; and the spherical interlayer storage and loss forces F 1 , F 2 . New instrumentation involving a rotating spherical interlayer (RSI) transducer and a rotational accessory to the Instron provides measurements from 0.001 to 45 cycle/sec at temperatures from −50° to 200°C. A comparison of RSI data, treated by time–temperature superposition, and literature values of dynamic response in polyisobutylene confirms both theory and method.
