Ov. Alekseeva et al., Solvent nature effects on the molecular-kinetic characteristics and equilibrium rigidity of ethyl cellulose molecules, RUSS J PH C, 74(8), 2000, pp. 1276-1278
The hydrodynamic and conformational characteristics of ethyl cellulose (EC)
macromolecules in nonaqueous solvents were determined by the viscometry, l
ight scattering, and spectroturbidimetry methods. Solvent nature effects on
equilibrium rigidity of EC chains were studied. The dependence of the stat
istical dimensions of polymer macromolecules on solvent permittivity and po
larity was established.
