SANS study of poly(benzyl ether) dendrimers

The analysis of SANS data for a series of the poly(benzyl ether) dendrimers of different molecular architecture in deuterated tetrahydrofuran and tolu ene allowed to obtain information about some regularities of the relation b etween the topology of the dendrimer molecule and its structural parameters . The dimension of the present dendrimers of the poly(benzyl ether) type po ints to a scaling law of the type R-g similar to M-1/3 in line with literat ure information obtained for other chemically different dendrimers.
