Abstract
Viscosity, diffusion and light scattering measurements were used to study a maleic acid-hex-1-ene copolymer (MHC) in solvents with different polarities. The use of DMF + 0·05 n NaI as solvent gave rise to a secondary MHC macromolecular structure which was due to intramolecular reactions of the alkyl radicals present in the branches. The copolymer takes up the conformation of a non-permeated, flexible Gaussian coil in methylethylketone (MEK) and dioxane as solvents. The viscosity of MHC-Na and MHC-Cd as a function of the neutralization α has a maximum; its position shifts towards larger α values with increasing dielectric constant.
