Simultaneous determination of the mechanical moduli and mass of thin layers using nonadditive quartz crystal acoustic impedance analysis

High frequency rheological properties of polymer films have been measured using a nonadditive quartz crystal resonator impedance approach. The method involves fast measurement of the quartz covered with the film in contact with solutions of different viscosities and the measurement of the equivalent...
