Abstract
The temperature dependence of the second virial coefficient and intrinsic viscosity of statistical copolymers of methyl methacrylate and methacrylic acid in 2-ethoxyethanol was investigated. It was found that the θ-temperatures of copolymers are outside the temperature range given by the θ-values for poly(methacrylic acid) and poly(methyl methacrylate). Their dependence on the copolymer composition has a discontinuity. Simple theoretical considerations have shown that this behaviour may be expected with copolymers composed of monomer units dissolving, respectively, with absorption and evolution of heat.
