✦ Synopsis

Hydrodynamic properties (intrinsic viscosity [t/], translational diffusion D and sedimentation So) of samples and fractions of hydroxypropylcellulose (HPC) have been investigated in a number of solvents. The relationships between [q], D and S O and the degree of polymerization of HPC in dimethylacetamide and tetrachloroethane were established. The equilibrium rigidity of HPC molecules was determined from the data on translational diffusion and viscometry; the length of the statistical segment is (210-240) × 10 8 cm. This evaluation of rigidity is in agreement with the rigidity parameters of other cellulose derivatives. It may be assumed that, just as for most mesogenic polymers, it is the high rigidity of the molecules that determines the possibility of mesophase formation in HPC solutions and melts.

## Abstract A general formalism, which includes translation–rotation coupling, is proposed for calculating translational and rotational transport properties, as well as intrinsic viscosities, of rigid macromolecules with an arbitrary shape. This formalism is based on Brenner's theory of translation

The fluorescence anisotropy of a general rigid body is formally the sum of five exponentials. We show that, to a high degree of approximation, there are relationships between the five time constants. As we define the time constants here, T I 2 75, ~2 z 73, and ~1 -l + 3 ~4 -l = 4 T 2 -l . In practi
