Abstract
The conformational and segment-orientational properties of unperturbed poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) chains are calculated using a Monte-Carlo chain-generating approach, based on the conventional rotational-isomeric-state (RIS) model of Williams and Flory. The calculated PET-chain dimensions and bond conformer populations are compared with recent experimental data. The effects of chain extension on the segmental orientation functions, P2(ξ), for the different sections of the PET structure are shown.
