The effect of solvents on the degradation of poly(methy1 methacrylate), polystyrene, and polyisobutylene by high-speed stirring (30,000 rpm) at 30ยฐC was studied. From the intrinsic viscosities of polymers stirred for given times, the viscosity-average degree of polymerization, p , was obtained and t

## Abstract Benzene solutions containing either poly(ethylene oxide) or poly(methyl methacrylate) or both of varying concentrations were prepared, stirred at a speed of 30,000 rpm, and the effects of concentrations of the same species or different species of polymers on the degradation of the polym
An equation is derived to estimate the hydrodynamic volume occupied by a typical linear polymer molecule, knowing only the polymer molecular weight and concentration of polymer in the solution. This equation may be applied to solutions above a minimum polymer concentration. Accuracy of the equation
