Equilibrium Properties

  • Chapter
Helical Wormlike Chains in Polymer Solutions

Abstract

This chapter presents the statistical-mechanical treatments of equilibrium conformational or static properties, such as the mean-square radius of gyration, scattering function, mean-square optical anisotropy, and mean-square electric dipole moment, of the unperturbed HW chain, including the KP wormlike chain as a special case, by an application of its chain statistics developed in Chap. 4. A comparison of theory with experiment is made with experimental data obtained for several flexible polymers in the Θ state over a wide range of molecular weight, including the oligomer region, and also for typical semiflexible polymers (without excluded volume) in some cases. It must be noted that well-characterized samples have recently been used for measurements of dilute-solution properties of the former; they are sufficiently narrow in molecular weight distribution, and have a fixed stereochemical composition independent of the molecular weight in the case of asymmetric polymers.
