Hz. Ma et al., UNPERTURBED MEAN-SQUARE RADIUS OF GYRATION OF ATACTIC POLYSTYRENE CHAIN WITH SIDE-GROUPS, European Polymer Journal, 33(10-12), 1997, pp. 1813-1815
A theoretical treatment of the unperturbed mean-square radius of gyrat
ion for the monosubstituted polymer chains is presented. The character
istic ratio and the temperature coefficient for an atactic polystyrene
chain are evaluated to be 1.89 and -1.3 x 10(-3) deg(-1) by the deriv
ed formulas, respectively, which agree well with the experimental data
