Abstract
Information about the exact location of topological and cohesional ent anglements at molecular level has been obtained by C-13 NMR relaxation analysis. The results show that about 20% of the carbon atonis in the main chain are entangled in the 25% (by weight) solution, which is in dependent of the content of the 1,2-segment in polybutadiene and of th e kind of solvent. However, the entanglement of the carbon atoms on th e end group of the side chain is very weak, they behave as slipping fr eely at the junctions.
