Piezo-optical study of the behaviour of short chain liquid polymers
The molecules of short chain liquid polymers exist in a dynamic mixture of conformations. Intermolecular interactions are important, rendering statistical mechanical models inappropriate: instead, free volume concepts are used. Evidence of an ordered liquid state in the n-alkanes is disputed, and...
