Abstract
A small angle neutron scattering (SANS) study on substituted polyacety lenes in good solvent has been performed. The two polymers considered are composed of mono- and disubstituted monomer units. The SANS result s show unambiguously the influence of the steric interaction between n eighbouring substituents on the magnitude of the statistical length. A ttempt is also done to relate the magnitude of the torsional fluctuati ons to the optical properties.
