Abstract

Hyperbranched polyurethane (HP) and its linear analog (LPU) were studied by size exclusion chromatography (SEC), utilizing a combination of refractive index (RI), right angle light scattering (RALLS), and differential viscosity (DV) detectors. The relationships between retention volume (Ve), intrinsic viscosity (η), radius of gyration (Rg), and the molecular structure were investigated. It was shown that the hyperbranched polyurethane had lower Ve, η, and Rg than its linear analog when they had the same molecular weight. The branching parameter g and g′ were calculated. © 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci 85: 2445–2450, 2002
