Abstract
The dilute solution behaviour of poly(2-thiophenmethyl methacrylate) (PTMM) has been studied in THF and thiophen (good solvents) and chlorobenzene (θ-solvent) at 298 K, by intrinsic viscosity, size-exclusion chromatography (SEC) and osmotic pressure measurements. The Kuhn-Mark-Houwink-Sakurada relationships were established. The flexibility factor σ and the thermodynamic parameter B were calculated using the Stockmayer-Fixman equation. The results obtained are compared with those previously found for poly(benzyl methacrylate) (PBzM) and discussed in terms of the specific influence of the aromatic nature of the side group.
