Abstract
The density, refractive index, glass-transition temperature, and the equilibrium modulus of elasticity have been calculated for polymer networks differing in their chemical nature and having different amounts of repeat-units in the fragment between crosslinks. The networks studied were based on PE, on the copolymer of styrene with divinylbenzene and sulphur vulcanized polyisoprene. When the number of repeat-units in the fragment is reduced to five or less, a marked change in the above listed physical characteristics was observed for all the systems under review. This change is attributed to a transition from sparse networks to dense ones.
