Estimation of the Unperturbed Chain Dimensions of Poly(Vinyl Chloride) Polymer by Various Methods %K Unperturbed chain dimensions %K PVC %K K %K Radius of gyration %K Intrinsic viscosity %R 10.30492/ijcce.1997.10328 %X Flory Fox, Kurata-Stockmayer, Berry, Inagaki-Suzuki-Kurata, Stockmayer-Fixman and Ahmad-Baloch methods based on the excluded volume theory have been applied to poly(vinyl chloride)-cyclohexanone system to obtain Kq and the radius of gyration. A discussion on the reliability of these methods is given. The Stockmayer-Fixman and Ahmad-Baloch methods are found to be equally applicable. %U https://ijcce.ac.ir/article_10328_e5fcc3206c0ece63b7e4a8e6b83ec9a5.pdf
