This study aims at the development of an optical technique by which the         individual components of polydisperse polymeric liquids can be studied          during a flow process.  The design of the experiment takes advantage of         an optical arrangement which has recently been developed for the study          of composite materials.  By extending that instrument so that                   wavelengths in the infrared spectral regime can be used, the infra-red          dichroism produced by polymer chains deformed during flow can be                measured.  Such a capability allows chains which are tagged with                deuterium to be distinguished from untagged polymer chains.  By                 studying bimodal mixtures of polymer chains in which one molecular              weight fraction consists of tagged chains, the dynamics of both long            and short chains can be determined independently.  The results of these         experiments are compared with recent molecular theories developed for           such bimodal mixtures.
