A polymer with M = 100,000 obeys the Mark-Houwink equation with K = 1 x 10-4 and a = 0 80
Huggins' constant is 0,33 Calculate the rel- ative viscosity at c = 0, 30 gldl
Answer :
[η] = k M^𝛼
[η]= 1x10^-4 x 100^0,8
[η]=39,81 x 10^-4
ηsp/c= [η] + k1[η]^2c
ηsp/0,3=39,81x10^-4 + 0,33 (39,81x10^-4)^2 0,3
ηsp=1,1947 x 10^-3
η= ηsp+1=1,1947 x 10^-3+1=1,0011
Jadi reltif viscosity 1,001
