Abstract

Abstract Several methods based on the Huggins equation are available for studying the behavior of linear flexible high polymers in the Newtonian region of concentrated solutions. The work of Simha and Zakin has attracted our attention to further investigation since it suffers from limitations in the type of solvent and the molecular weight range of the polymer suggested for study. It was observed that a suitable modification of the Huggins equation would widen the scope of the original method. An alternative method for determining the incipient concentration c0 where the intermolecular attraction and the repulsion just balance each other, is also suggested.
