33. c 3.0σ, we equilibrated systems of 25000 chains of length N 10 and 2500 chains of length N 100 at zero pressure and then sheared at a given shear rate. Non-equilibrium trajectories were generated by integrating the SLLOD equations of motion (Ref.). The shear viscosity η was calculated for several shear rates and extrapolated to zero shear rate. We found η 12 ± 1 and 180 ± 10mστ for N 10 and 100, respectively.
