Notizen:
The translational diffusion coefficients for three relatively short, nearly monodisperse polystyrene chains (with molecular weights 2000, 4000, and 9000) in liquid cyclohexane have been measured up to 523.2 K using the extended Taylor dispersion method. The resultant hydrodynamic radii are successfully interpreted with the freely jointed chain model corrected for the approximations intrinsic to Kirkwood's theory with Stokes' radius as the only adjustable parameter, which is found to decrease with chain length but approach a constant value for long enough chains. The experimentally observed hydrodynamic radii of polystyrene standards with molecular weights 17,500, 50,000 and 100,000 at 308.2 K conform quite well to the values predicted with the approach formulated in this work.
