Molecular Weight and Molecular Weight Distributions in Synthetic Polymers.
Ward, Thomas Carl
Journal of Chemical Education, v58 n11 p867-79 Nov 1981
Focuses on molecular weight and molecular weight distributions (MWD) and models for predicting MWD in a pedagogical way. In addition, instrumental methods used to characterize MWD are reviewed with emphasis on physical chemistry of each, including end-group determination, osmometry, light scattering, solution viscosity, fractionation, and size-exclusion chromatography.
