Abstract
The influence of branching on inter- and intramolecular interaction pa rameters-as defined by Wolf for linear polymers-is discussed for starl ike polystyrene and polybutadiene in good solvents. The paper proposes a method of evaluation of the interaction parameters for branched pol ymers starting from experimental data on A(2) and [eta] for linear cha ins and from the theoretical ratios A(2,branched)/A(2,linear) and [eta ](branched)/[eta](linear).
