Abatract--Acetone solutions of a cellulose diacetate fraction were studied by viscosity and light scattering methods over the range 12.6-50.3:. The temperature dependences of the limiting viscosity number [~/], the mean-square radius of gyration , and the second virial coefficient A2 were determined

โฆ Synopsis
Measurements of radius of gyration, (SZ) ~, and persistence length of polymer molecules in bulk atactic polystyrene have been made by means of low angle neutron scattering. The measured values of (S 2 )~ lie close to those measured in 0:solvents and have a molecular weight dependence of M -*+~ where E = 0.04 + 0.04. The molecular configuration agrees closely with that of a random coil with a persistence length -10~.. These measurements support the model of an unperturbed Gaussian coil for this polymer. Measurements of(S2) ยฝ throughout the glass transition region indicate that the overall conformation of the polymer chain does not change on heating through this region.
