Abstract
Solution properties of poly(2-methoxyethyl methacrylate) (PMEMA) were investigated by light scattering, viscometry, and gel-permeation chromatography (GPC). The refractive and density increments and the apparent partial specific volumes of PMEMA in various solvents were determined. The properties of cosolvent mixtures for PMEMA are discussed. The constants of the Mark—Houwink equation for PMEMA fractions were determined in methyl ethyl ketone and tetrahydrofuran. The steric factor of PMEMA was determined from viscometric data. Comparison of the molecular parameters of PMEMA calculated from the GPC data and measured by an independent method confirmed the validity of the universal calibration. The solution properties of PMEMA and poly(methyl methacrylate) are compared.
