1. INTRODUCTION
Realistic identification of the secure range of functionality variables in case of polymer materials needs
both the improvement of phenomenological approaches as well as the use of advanced experimental
equipment, the requirement being of outmost relevance rather when new generation hybrid systems are in
view [1], [2].
The rheological behaviour of many materials, especially of polymer-like ones, shows a high sensivity
from the standpoint of temperature, time, frequency, pressure, etc., the separate and cumulate effects
requiring the possibility to ensure a programmable control of variables, e.g., dynamic strain-(or stress-)
controlled excitation conditions at constant rate heating and different frequencies, or a frequency scaning and
different temperatures [3]-[9].
Accordingly, the full set of rheodynamic quantities, including for strain()-controlled conditions, the
primary quantities - the storage, M ( ) , loss, M ( ) , and absolute modulus, | M * ( ) | , as well as the
( ) , loss, J M ( ) , and
corresponding loss factor, M ( ) , - and the secondary ones - the storage, J M
absolute compliance, | J ( ) | , as well as the corresponding loss factor, J M ( ) , and in case of stress()*
controlled state, the primary quantities - the storage, J ( ) , loss, J ( ) , and absolute compliance,
| J * ( ) | , as well as the corresponding loss factor, J ( ) , - and the secondary ones - the storage, M J ( ) ,
loss, M J ( ) , and absolute compliance, | M J ( ) | , as well as the corresponding loss factor, J M ( ) , are

Multifunctionality selection criteria in the dynamic thermorheological characterization of solid-like polymer materials
2C/min. The active dimensions of a standard PMMA sample were 20.00 x 8.03 x 0.23 mm. The working
frequencies were 0.5; 1.0; 2.0;5.0; 10.0 Hz.
It is noteworthy to point out that while many available DMA instruments operate in a slow isothermal
step mode when performing frequency multiplexing experiments, with a lot of difficulties from the
standpoint of data collection, in case of employed system, owing to real-time FT technology and Synthetic
Oscillation (SO) mode, a complex sine stress which contains five simultaneous frequencies is applied to the
sample. Then, the resulting complex strain and stress sine waves are deconvoluted, and operated to compute
the different quantitative dynamic viscoelastic quantities [4]-[7], the shortcoming of only one discrete
frequency sequentially applied at a time in traditional systems being overcomed in case of SO mode option
when the sample is subjected to all five frequencies simultaneously.
The storage quantities (e.g., M ( , T ) and J ( , T ) ) are directly and inversely proportional,
respectively, to the recoverable component of energy of strain- and stress-controlled processes, respectively,
while the loss quantities (e.g., M ( , T ) and J ( , T ) ) relates to the corresponding dissipation
components. Furthermore, the absolute quantities (e.g., | M * ( , T ) | and | J * ( , T ) | )) l are measures of
overall dynamic rigidity
M ( , T ) = tan M ( , T )
M ( , T ) = tan M ( , T ) giving the loss factor in both considered cases appear to be rather an index of
viscoelasticity issued as a direct consequence of the lag between the dynamic stress and strain.
The dependence of the full set of rheodynamic quantities vs. temperature at different frequencies
(Figure 1), is presented on the basis of primary data - the storage and loss modulus as well as the
corresponding loss factor. The essential trends show, at given frequency, D , a monoton decrease with the
rise of temperature in case of
different loss rheodynamic quantities point out dissimilar tendencies - for E ( , TD ) , T TE , an increase,
and, for T TE , an inversion of relative positions of frequency controlled curves ; for tan D , T Ttan D ,
approximately constant values, and, for T Ttan D , decrease, with higher values; for J , T TJ , an
approximately constant value, and, for T TJ , a decrease, with higher values.

Multifunctionality selection criteria in the dynamic thermorheological characterization of solid-like polymer materials
At the end, further criteria of evaluating intrinsic multifunctionality from the view point of potential
of polymeric material within the realm of linear viscoelastic behaviour may be considered both the frequency
and/or temperature Cole-Cole patterns of rheodynamic quantities (Figure 5).

4. CONCLUSIONS
The versatility of the used DMA system enables a comprehensive characterization of viscoelastic
behaviour versus temperature and frequency, respectively, for complete sets of modulus- and compliancelike quantities substantiated as proper indicators of rheodynamic multifunctionality.
The considered storage and especially rheodynamic loss quantities represent key measures of dynamic
relaxation/retardation and mixed processes, accounting for the outstanding potential of polymeric materials
generated at different levels of structural architecture.
